Description

Chicago’s Southwest Side is likely one of the last remaining footholds for the town’s white working class, a bit of-studied and little-understood segment of the American population. This book paints a nuanced and sophisticated portrait of the firefighters, cops, stay-at-home mothers, and place of job workers living within the stable working-class community referred to as Beltway. Building at the classic Chicago School of urban studies and incorporating new perspectives from cultural geography and sociology, Maria Kefalas considers the importance of home, community, and nation for Beltway residents.
