  • The Basic Issue of This Study, As It Should Be for All Historical Research
    Excerpt • Temple University Press Introduction he basic issue of this study, as it should be for all historical research and analysis, is how do we confront the past? And since war espe- Tcially invites the construction of a mythic past, the writing of history becomes an attempt to correct our collective memory. In the case of the Great War of 1914–1918, remembrance has often taken the form of heritage and celebration rather than more profound learning and understanding. But we do not want to rehash the platitudes of “conventional wisdom.” Among the many aspects of a conflict that engulfed much of the world, for the United States, it involved coming to terms with the great diversity within the popu- lation as its military forces went off to fight on foreign battlefields. It sent men into combat against the military forces of the lands their families had only recently left but that had become enemy nations. It asked other men to become allies of friendlier states from which they had departed, sometimes with uncertain plans about whether they ever intended to return. How this affected the mobilization of troops for the combat that lay ahead remains to be fully told. But it left a legacy that persisted in national policy and popular culture, even after the war had ended. In the years after the Great War, performers on the theatrical stages of America would celebrate the victory of the United States and the Allies over the Central Powers. Drawing on a vast repertoire of musical selections that re- flected various aspects of the ended but still intrusive war, audiences could hear a catchy song called “When Tony Goes over the Top,” whose words intoned: 2 | INTRODUCTION Excerpt • Temple University Press Hey! You know Tony the Barber Who shaves and cuts-a the hair He said skabooch, to his Mariooch He’s gonna fight “Over There” Hey! You know how Tony could shave you He’d cut you from ear to ear .

  • New York's Mulberry Street and the Redefinition of the Italian
    FRUNZA, BOGDANA SIMINA., M.S. Streetscape and Ethnicity: New York’s Mulberry Street and the Redefinition of the Italian American Ethnic Identity. (2008) Directed by Prof. Jo R. Leimenstoll. 161 pp. The current research looked at ways in which the built environment of an ethnic enclave contributes to the definition and redefinition of the ethnic identity of its inhabitants. Assuming a dynamic component of the built environment, the study advanced the idea of the streetscape as an active agent of change in the definition and redefinition of ethnic identity. Throughout a century of existence, Little Italy – New York’s most prominent Italian enclave – changed its demographics, appearance and significance; these changes resonated with changes in the ethnic identity of its inhabitants. From its beginnings at the end of the nineteenth century until the present, Little Italy’s Mulberry Street has maintained its privileged status as the core of the enclave, but changed its symbolic role radically. Over three generations of Italian immigrants, Mulberry Street changed its role from a space of trade to a space of leisure, from a place of providing to a place of consuming, and from a social arena to a tourist tract. The photographic analysis employed in this study revealed that changes in the streetscape of Mulberry Street connected with changes in the ethnic identity of its inhabitants, from regional Southern Italian to Italian American. Moreover, the photographic evidence demonstrates the active role of the street in the permanent redefinition of

  • Cleveland's Greater University Circle Initiative
    Cleveland’s Greater University Circle Initiative An Anchor-Based Strategy for Change Walter Wright Kathryn W. Hexter Nick Downer Cleveland’s Greater University Circle Initiative An Anchor-Based Strategy for Change Walter Wright, Kathryn W. Hexter, and Nick Downer Cities are increasingly turning to their “anchor” institutions as drivers of economic development, harnessing the power of these major economic players to benefit the neighborhoods where they are rooted. This is especially true for cities that are struggling with widespread poverty and disinvestment. Ur- ban anchors­­—typically hospitals and universities—have some- times isolated themselves from the poor and struggling neigh- borhoods that surround them. But this is changing. Since the late 1990s, as population, jobs, and investment have migrated outward, these “rooted in place” institutions are becoming a key to the long, hard work of revitalization. In Cleveland, the Greater University Circle Initiative is a unique, multi-stake- holder initiative with a ten-year track record. What is the “se- cret sauce” that keeps this effort together? Walter W. Wright is the Program Manager for Economic Inclusion at Cleveland State. Kathryn W. Hexter is the Director of the Center for Community Planning and Development of Cleveland State University’s Levin College of Urban Affairs. Nick Downer is a Graduate Assistant at the Center for Community Planning and Development. 1 Cleveland has won national attention for the role major non- profits are playing in taking on the poverty and disinvest- ment plaguing some of the poorest neighborhoods in the city. Where once vital university and medical facilities built barri- ers separating themselves from their neighbors, now they are engaging with them, generating job opportunities, avenues to affordable housing, and training in a coordinated way.

One need only amble through the gates on Fisgard Street in Victoria or in Gastown in Vancouver to encounter vibrant Chinatowns, or through small roadways just off Dundas Street in Toronto to happen upon enclaves of Portuguese from the Azores; if you wander through the Côte- des-Neiges district in Montreal you will discover a polyethnic world - Kazakhis, Russian Jews, Vietnamese, Sri Lankans or Haitians among many other groups - while parts ot Dartmouth are home to an old African-Canadian community.
