New York City
New York City's population of 8.4 million in 2015 makes this city by far the largest one in the United States, over twice as large as the second and third largest cities, Los Angeles (3.9 million in 2012) and Chicago (2.7 million in 2012). As a global city, New York typically ranks first worldwide. For example, on the five metrics of business activity, human capital, information exchange, cultural experience, and political engagement, New York sc…

Highbrow/Lowbrow
The distinction between “high culture” and “popular culture,” or “highbrow” and “lowbrow,” has underpinned many of the important debates about culture over the last 50 years, especially in the US, Britain, and France, but also elsewhere. Theories of culture have tended either to presuppose this distinction or to discuss and fine‐tune various aspects of it

Inside culture: Art and class in the American home
David Halle's idea was simple but radical: to connect culture to everyday life by showing how people actually use the artifacts of culture - paintings, photographs, sculpture - in the most intimate of all settings: the home. In the first book of its kind, Halle gives a fascinating account of the uses and meaning of art for those who buy it and live with it. His study ranges from the affluent town houses on Manhattan's Upper East Side and row hous…

Displaying the Dream: The Visual Presentation of Family and Self in the Modern American Household
A crucial part of the American dream is the American family. The photographs of family members which pervade the homes of middle-class and working-class Americans reveal much about their ideals and aspirations for the family, as well as the ways in which their reality often fails to measure up to those ideals. This essay discusses data based on a random sample of households drawn from fourneighborhoods in the New York region, including two workin…
Working-Class Americanism: The Politics of Labor in a Textile City, 1914-1960.Gary Gerstle
Cultures of Solidarity: Consciousness, Action and Contemporary American Workers
A commonplace assumption about American workers is that they lack class consciousness. This perception has baffled social scientists, demoralized activists, and generated a significant literature on American exceptionalism. In this provocative book, a young sociologist takes the prevailing assumptions to task and sheds new light upon this very important issue. In three vivid case studies Fantasia explores the complicated, multi-faceted dynamics o…

America's Working Man: Work, Home, and Politics Among Blue Collar Property Owners
Over a period of six years, at factory and warehouse, at the tavern across the road, in their homes and union meetings, on fishing trips and social outings, David Halle talked and listened to workers of an automated chemical plant in New Jersey's industrial heartland. He has emerged with an unusually comprehensive and convincingly realistic picture of blue-collar life in America. Throughout the book, Halle illustrates his analysis with excerpts o…
Mansion on the Hill
OWNING A HOME IS THE North American worker's dream. Generations of immigrants have aspired to property ownership in the New World. The home has become a powerful symbol of American life: of the rewards of thrift, of the possibilities for social mobility and individual achievement, and of the abiding virtues of family life. Such, at any rate, is the prevailing view, articulated by social observers and real estate promoters alike. Homeownership is …
