Abstract
Krase's focus in this essay is on the Italian American neighborhood as a "stereotypical" phenomenon. The author demonstrates how the way people think of themselves (their self image) affects the places in which they live; "…and conversely - how the way people define their neighborhood has an effect on their own self conception" (p. 170). Krase's analysis of data relevant to the above hypotheses - often theoretical in nature - constitutes the major bulk of this document.
