Reviews
In this debut book, Deener moves to the front ranks of contemporary ethnographers who are simultaneously historians, writing a compelling 'history of the present' that instructs us not only on the contemporary diversity inscribed in local public and private space, but also the dynamic past processes creating today's combustible mix., "Andrew Deener's ethnography is of a new neighborhood, new not because of the recency of its buildings but the kind of social and economic adjacencies taking form in places like Venice, California: the hip, the ethnic, the tourist, and the building code. How they all come together makes for new analytic discoveries as well as sparkling text and fresh insights."-Harvey Molotch, New York University, "Deener writes clearly and engagingly about development and gentrification in Venice, one of those places that everyone has heard about but few people actually know. Unfailingly interesting to anyone interested in urbanism, urban sociology, and history, this first-class book will command respect from scholars. Deener clearly knows what he's talking about and when he's through, so do you."-Howard S. Becker, author of Telling About Society, "In this tour de force of dialectical observation, Andrew Deener explains how Venice Beach is both L.A.'s democratic libido and the summation of its inequalities."-Mike Davis, author of City of Quartz: Excavating the Future in Los Angeles, "In this tour de force of dialectical observation, Andrew Deener explains how Venice Beach is both L.A.'s democratic libido and the summation of its inequalities."--Mike Davis, author of City of Quartz: Excavating the Future in Los Angeles, In this tour de force of dialectical observation, Andrew Deener explains how Venice Beach is both L.A.'s democratic libido and the summation of its inequalities., Deener writes clearly and engagingly about development and gentrification in Venice, one of those places that everyone has heard about but few people actually know. Unfailingly interesting to anyone interested in urbanism, urban sociology, and history, this first-class book will command respect from scholars. Deener clearly knows what he's talking about and when he's through, so do you., "Andrew Deener's ethnography is of a new neighborhood, new not because of the recency of its buildings but the kind of social and economic adjacencies taking form in places like Venice, California: the hip, the ethnic, the tourist, and the building code. How they all come together makes for new analytic discoveries as well as sparkling text and fresh insights."--Harvey Molotch, New York University, Deener has produced a thoughtful first book which, in Venice's case, shows a frightening urban trend back towards Louis Wirth's segregated mosaics of nearly a century ago. This book would be equally appropriate for an undergraduate course or a graduate seminar, particularly in urban studies or qualitative research methods. It's also a necessary read for anyone undertaking research in gentrification, stratification, segregation and urban policy.

Synopsis
Nestled between Santa Monica and Marina del Rey, Venice is a Los Angeles community filled with apparent contradictions. There, people of various races and classes live side by side, a population of astounding diversity bound together by geographic proximity. From street to street, and from block to block, million dollar homes stand near housing projects and homeless encampments; and upscale boutiques are just a short walk from the (in)famous Venice Beach where artists and carnival performers practice their crafts opposite cafés and ragtag tourist shops. In Venice: A Contested Bohemia in Los Angeles , Andrew Deener invites the reader on an ethnographic tour of this legendary California beach community and the people who live there. In writing this book, the ethnographer became an insider; Deener lived as a resident of Venice for close to six years. Here, he brings a scholarly eye to bear on the effects of gentrification, homelessness, segregation, and immigration on this community. Through stories from five different parts of Venice--Oakwood, Rose Avenue, the Boardwalk, the Canals, and Abbot Kinney Boulevard-- Deener identifies why Venice maintained its diversity for so long and the social and political factors that threaten it. Drenched in the details of Venice's transformation, the themes and explanations will resonate far beyond this one city. Deener reveals that Venice is not a single locale, but a collection of neighborhoods, each with its own identity and conflicts--and he provides a cultural map infinitely more useful than one that merely shows streets and intersections. Deener's Venice appears on these pages fully fleshed out and populated with a stunning array of people. Though the character of any neighborhood is transient, Deener's work is indelible and this book will be studied for years to come by scholars across the social sciences., Nestled between Santa Monica and Marina del Rey, Venice is a Los Angeles community filled with apparent contradictions.
