Earlier Uses of Politically (In)correct
The Big Apple and Its Language
The City in Slang
The American urban scene, and in particular New York's, has given us a rich cultural legacy of slang words and phrases, a bonanza of popular speech. Hot dog, rush hour, butter-and-egg man, gold digger, shyster, buttinsky, smart aleck, sidewalk superintendent, yellow journalism, breadline, straphanger, tar beach, the Tenderloin, the Great White Way, to do a Brodie--these are just a few of the hundreds of popular words and phrases that were born or…
Some Informal Neighborhood and Street Names in Manhattan
An annotated glossary of thirty-five informal, often slang-like historical placenames of socially symbolic neighborhoods and streets in Manhattan is given. The list is limited to the more enduring names of probable New York origin and to similar names that took on highly specialized meanings in Manhattan. The glossary is preceded by a short essay which discusses the social uses and gratifications of informal placenames in city life

Personal Names that Became Ethnic Epithets
The inventory of generic nicknames for ethnic persons and groups, which have been used in American slang, dialects, and other popular speech, reflects the history of ethnic conflict in plural society. The sociologist can usefully view ethnic epithets as the lexical content of urban and ethnic folklores. About one in six of these stereotypical names is fonned on a personal name. In a search of the scholarly records of American popular speech, I fo…

Talking About Media Experiences
The Ideology of Dense Neighborhood Redevelopment
The trend of central-city neighborhood reinvasion resembles a social movement and has undertones of ideology and utopia. The ideological content has certain parallels with the anti-urban suburban trend of a generation ago. There are also pro-urban values of cultural diversity and pluralism in the new movement, though they tend to be romantically distorted. Moreover, the values are ambivalently held and may fail to yield the alternative and transc…
