street life  

Définition

  • At one time, street life would have called to mind neighbors socializing on their front steps, children calling out to friends as they walked to and from school, and festivals and parades at holidays. In distressed urban communities that are facing the twenty-first-century challenges of deindustrialization and an increasingly global economy, however, the favorable image of street life has been replaced by a more threatening one, dominated by street codes, street justice, and the presence of an underground (that is, illegal) economy.
