这是真实的布里克巷——布里克巷和伦敦东区的真实生活。《东伦敦的家庭与亲属》是20世纪50年代最具影响力的非虚构类书籍之一,它深入研究了生活在码头地区的人们的生活,这些地区在闪电战中被彻底摧毁。从那以后发生了什么?50年来,整个地区都陷入了可怕的衰退;已全面重新开发(有时不止一次);最重要的是,传统家庭大多离开了,取而代之的是大量涌入的孟加拉国家庭,其中许多人现在已经进入第二代。他们的生活是怎样的?社区如何应对这种激进的变化?老白人和新亚裔之间的关系是怎样的?政府政策会影响种族主义吗?(在这里,作者惊人地表明,住房政策使种族关系更加恶化,必须改变。这将非常有争议)。这本书对英格兰最迷人的地区之一的生活进行了全面的考察——但它代表了整个英国,实际上也代表了世界上所有拥有大量新移民人口的地方。
This is non-fiction Brick Lane -what life is really like around Brick Lane and the East End. One of the most influential non-fiction books of the 1950s was Family and Kinship in East London which examined in great depth the life of people living in the dockland areas that had been so comprehensively destroyed in the blitz. What has happened since? In the 50 years since the whole area has gone into terrible decline; has been comprehensively redeveloped (sometimes more than once); and, most important of all, has seen the traditional families largely leave, to be replaced by a huge influx of Bangladeshi families - many of whom are now into the second generation. What are their lives like? How is the community coping with the radical change? What are relations like between the old white population and the new Asian population? Does government policy affect racism? (Here the authors show - startlingly - that housing policies have made race relations much worse and must be changed. This will be very controversial). The book is a comprehensive examination of life in one of the most intriguing parts of England - but it stands for all Britain, and indeed everywhere in the world with large new immigrant populations.
