Cover of Ida Susser: Norman Street (ePUB)

Based on a three-year study conducted in Brooklyn’s Greenpoint/Williamsburg section, Norman Street is an in-depth, detailed description of life in a multi-ethnic working class neighborhood during New York City’s fiscal crisis of 1975-1978. Now updated with a new introduction to address the changes and events of the thirty years since the book’s original publication, its lessons still resonate in the impact of political and economic changes on everyday lives.
