Sidewalk - Tapa blanda

""Sidewalk will radically change the way we think about 'the public sphere.' "--Robin D. G. Kelley, author of "Yo Mama's Disfunktional!
""An inspired, yet strategically conceived work that restores a sense of new possibility and passion to ethnography just as it was threatened by cliche through its recent popularity.""--George Marcus, author of "Ethnography through Thick and Thin
"["Sidewalk] is in the best tradition of participant observation. If I were still teaching, I would want all of my students to read this book.""--William Foote Whyte, author of "Street Corner Society
"An exciting and original approach to the problems of urban life, informed by years of intensive participation and by a deep understanding of social science thinking. No one has combined theory and intimate knowledge of city streets as successfully. A masterpiece of fieldwork."--Howard S. Becker, author of "Outsiders
"Duneier must be one of the outstanding ethnographers of our time: he renders visible what typically remains submerged as we take in the world at street level. This is a deep, complex, moving book that yanks you out of your own lived experiences of that world and draws you to another."--Saskia Sassen, author of "The Global City
"[A] magnificent book . . . Duneier is a professor of sociology, but he has a superb journalist's ear for quotes and the ability to limn character and scene. He writes, that is, as very few sociologists do: he stays on for years, immersed in his subject, as virtually no journalist will do.""--Richard Eder, "The New York Times
"A necessary book . . . A work of frontline reportage, an inquiry into the economic and political and moral forces that are busyreconfiguring the city, [and] an urgent plea for justice, however couched it is in the careful, procedural, understating style of fieldwork."--Luc Sante, "Village Voice Literary Supplement
""Sidewalk is an intellectual treat and a student turn-on. I'm using it in my urban studies course and as a key reading for introductory sociology."
"--Harvey Molotch, co-author, "Urban Fortunes
"Insightful and compelling . . . . Capture[s] the pathos, struggle, joy, honor and dignity of the men and women of 'the sidewalk.' ""--Elaine Rivera," Chicago Tribune
""Sidewalk brings us close to the hustle and bustle of urban street life--the book is a knowing, thoughtful exploration that will earn it a place among the classics of the documentary tradition.""--Robert Coles
"A nuanced study of the lives of impoverished street vendors in New York's Greenwich Village . . . . A work that adds much to our understanding of race, poverty, and our reactions to them.""--"Kirkus Reviews
"I suspect this exemplary ethnography will, like "Street Corner Society, speak to generations of readers . . . . The photos by Ovie Carter . . . and the appendix on method are worth the price of entry . . . . The entire book demonstrates . . . scrupulous care, caring, and respect . . . . Duneier uses theory to help him understand and explicate his observations, never for its own sake. Like all classic fieldworkers he is open to learn, to change, as a result of the ethnographic experience.""--Joan Cassell, Washington University, "American Anthropologist
