Abstract

This short personal essay considers the principles behind housing reform in New York at the turn of the last century in light of the controversies around the ghetto law in contemporary Denmark. I take the example of documentary journalist and reformer Jacob Riis, who photographed housing conditions in immigrant neighbor-hoods on the Lower East Side in New York at the turn of the twentieth century, as a case study for considering the ways that race informed—and continues to inform—ideals around urban planning. Conversely, I also consider contemporary controversies around the ghetto law, and activism by community members as a way of re-thinking a research approach to historical urban reforms.

新冠肺炎时期的住房改革与贫民窟法
这篇简短的个人文章考虑了上世纪之交纽约住房改革背后的原则,结合了当代丹麦关于贫民区法律的争议。我以纪录片记者兼改革者Jacob Riis为例,他在20世纪之交拍摄了纽约下东区移民邻居的住房条件,作为一个案例研究,思考种族如何影响——并继续影响——城市规划的理想。相反,我也认为当代围绕贫民区法的争议,以及社区成员的行动主义,是重新思考历史城市改革研究方法的一种方式。
