Overview

Turf Wars: Discourse, Diversity, and the Politics of Place is the fascinating story of an urban neighborhood undergoing rapid gentrification.

Explores how members of a multi-ethnic, multi-class Washington, DC, community deploy language to legitimize themselves as community members while discrediting others.
Discusses such issues as public toilets and public urination, the "morality" of co-ops and condos, and characterizations of "good" girls and "bad" boys.
Draws on linguistic anthropology and discourse analysis to provide insight into the ways that local activity shapes larger urban social processes.
Draws also on cultural geography and urban anthropology.
