Description

Vingtième Siècle. Revue d'histoire - Année 1993 - Volume 40 - Numéro 1 - Pages 23-32
Multiculturalism and marginalization in Los Angeles. From Watts (1965) to South Central (1992), Cynthia Ghorra-Godin.
From the 1992 South Central events, the author looks on the major upheavals that have marked Los Angeles in the last two decades: the shifts in population composition since the spectacular arrival of the Hispanics, the socio-economic and inter-ethnic tensions stemming from de-industralization, the limits of political regulation. The sudden riots of 1992, just as the permanent tensions underlying urban life, reflect mainly the failure of a town planning which focused on spatial expansion and individual housing to the detriment of the development of a genuinely public space able to blend the various communities.

Abstract

Multiculturalism and marginalization in Los Angeles. From Watts (1965) to South Central (1992), Cynthia Ghorra-Godin.

From the 1992 South Central events, the author looks on the major upheavals that have marked Los Angeles in the last two

decades: the shifts in population composition since the spectacular arrival of the Hispanics, the socio-economic and inter-ethnic

tensions stemming from de-industralization, the limits of political regulation. The sudden riots of 1992, just as the permanent

tensions underlying urban life, reflect mainly the failure of a town planning which focused on spatial expansion and individual

housing to the detriment of the development of a genuinely public space able to blend the various communities.
