This vividly detailed cultural history of L.A. from 1940 to 1970 traces the rise of a new suburban consciousness adopted by a generation of migrants who abandoned older American cities for Southern California's booming urban region. Eric Avila explores expressions of this new "white identity" in popular culture with provocative discussions of Hollywood and film noir, Dodger Stadium, Disneyland, and L.A.'s renowned freeways. These institutions not only mirrored this new culture of suburban whiteness and helped shape it, but also, as Avila argues, reveal the profound relationship between the increasingly fragmented urban landscape of Los Angeles and the rise of a new political outlook that rejected the tenets of New Deal liberalism and anticipated the emergence of the New Right. Avila examines disparate manifestations of popular culture in architecture, art, music, and more to illustrate the unfolding urban dynamics of postwar Los Angeles. He also synthesizes important currents of new research in urban history, cultural studies, and critical race theory, weaving a textured narrative about the interplay of space, cultural representation, and identity amid the westward shift of capital and culture in postwar America. 410 0$aAmerican crossroads ;$v13. 606 $aPopular culture$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPublic spaces$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWhite people$xRace identity$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles 606 $aSuburban life$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aSuburban life in popular culture$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMigration, Internal$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles Region$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aAfrican Americans$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$xSocial conditions$y20th century 606 $aCity and town life$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aLos Angeles (Calif.)$xCivilization$y20th century 607 $aLos Angeles (Calif.)$xSocial conditions$y20th century 607 $aLos Angeles (Calif.)$xRace relations 610 $a20th century. 610 $aart and architecture. 610 $acalifornia history. 610 $acalifornia. 610 $aconservative right. 610 $acultural history. 610 $acultural representation. 610 $ademographic studies. 610 $adisneyland. 610 $afilm noir. 610 $ahollywood. 610 $aliberalism. 610 $alos angeles. 610 $amodern history. 610 $anew deal. 610 $anew right. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $apopular culture. 610 $apostwar america. 610 $aregional history. 610 $asouthern california. 610 $asuburban culture. 610 $asuburban landscape. 610 $asuburbs. 610 $aunited states. 610 $aurban landscape. 610 $aus history. 610 $awhite flight. 610 $awhite identity. 610 $aworld war ii. 610 $awwii. 615 0$aPopular culture$xHistory 615 0$aPublic spaces$xHistory 615 0$aWhite people$xRace identity 615 0$aSuburban life$xHistory 615 0$aSuburban life in popular culture$xHistory 615 0$aMigration, Internal$xHistory 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xSocial conditions 615 0$aCity and town life$xHistory 676 $a979.4/94 700 $aAvila$b Eric$f1968-$01463397 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bCaOWtU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783389303321 996 $aPopular culture in the age of white flight$93672676 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01201nam0 22002651i 450 001 VAN00039923 005 20240806100411.428 010 $a88-86218-80-X 100 $a20051230d2005 |0itac50 ba 101 $aita 102 $aIT 105 $a|||| ||||| 200 1 $aˆIl ‰recupero dell'architettura e del paesaggio in Irpinia$emanuale delle tecniche di intervento$fa cura di Angelo Verderosa$gprefazione di Massimo Pica Ciamarra 210 $aAvellino$cDe Angelis$d2005 215 $a166 p.$cill.$d29 cm. 620 $dAvellino$3VANL000800 702 1$aPica Ciamarra$bMassimo$3VANV033067 702 1$aVerderosa$bAngelo$3VANV033066 712 $aDe Angelis$3VANV110183$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20240906$gRICA 912 $aVAN00039923 950 $aBIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI ARCHITETTURA E DISEGNO INDUSTRIALE$d01PREST IIFb140 $e01 29428 20051230 950 $aBIBLIOTECA DEL DIPARTIMENTO DI ARCHITETTURA E DISEGNO INDUSTRIALE$d01PREST M61 $e01 52966 20180924 996 $aRecupero dell'architettura e del paesaggio in Irpinia$9741521 997 $aUNICAMPANIA LEADER 03732nam 2200529#u 450 001 9910879301203321 005 20230913112557.0 010 $a9798888570975 010 $a9781789259933 010 $a1789259932 035 $a(CKB)27240672400041 035 $a(BIP)096340944 035 $a(NjHacI)9927240672400041 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC30674390 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL30674390 035 $a(ScCtBLL)d4598dc7-9b39-4da4-a6c8-5e042ec0879f 035 $a(Perlego)4184385 035 $a(EXLCZ)9927240672400041 100 $a20######d2022#### ### 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aCities of the Plain: Urbanism in Ancient Western Thessaly 205 $aPaperback. 210 $cCasemate Publishers & Book Distributors, LLC$d2023 210 1$aPhiladelphia :$cCasemate Publishers & Book Distributors, LLC,$d2023. 215 $a1 online resource (192 p.) 311 08$a9781789259926 311 08$a1789259924 327 $aFront Matter -- Table of Contents -- Summary -- ????????? -- Acknowledgements -- A statement regarding illustrations, photographic permits and rights -- A note on transliterations -- Foreword -- 1 Introduction -- 2 The evidence -- 3 Discussion -- 4 Conclusions -- Appendix 1.

Presenting all the available evidence for ancient urban sites in the region, the study outlines and discusses the origins, development, and decline of urbanism in the area.The archaeological evidence shows that urban sites in western Thessaly developed from the mid-4th century BCE, with at least 25 identified contemporaneous cities spread over the area. These cities appear to have been planned and organised from the onset, with regular street-grids, fortification systems and water supply works, but were generally short-lived, typically existing for only five-six generations. Most of the sites were completely or nearly completely abandoned as settlements in the early 2nd century BCE, often with evidence of violent destruction, and only a handful survived as smaller regional centres under the Roman administration. Restorations of the former urban sites and especially their fortifications occur towards the end of Antiquity, especially the first half of the 6th century CE, but re-occupation appears again to have been short lived, as only three cities survived into the Middle Ages.From a regional perspective, the study shows that the rise and fall of urbanism itself did not necessarily cause complete socio-political disruption, but rather reflect changes in regional and supra-regional political organisation. On a global scale, the study exemplifies the political nature of the pre-Industrial city, its synthetic rather than organic role in agrarian societies, and the cyclic nature of urbanity in history.The book contains an extensive catalogue, presenting each site with photographs, topographical sketches, and complete bibliography. 606 $aArchaeology 606 $aCities and towns, Ancient 606 $aUrbanization$xHistory 615 0$aArchaeology. 615 0$aCities and towns, Ancient. 615 0$aUrbanization$xHistory. 676 $a307.7609382 700 $aRo?nnlund$b Robin$01765172 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910879301203321 996 $aCities of the Plain: Urbanism in Ancient Western Thessaly$94206472 997 $aUNINA
