Location, Location, Location: Gender and the Archaeology of Urban Settlement
The word community describes both organizations of individuals with a shared identity and discrete spaces shared by these individuals. The elision of the two definitions—one social, the other spatial— contains a contested condition. Typically conceived as separate and gendered spheres, domesticity and urbanity have been crucial to the changing physical definition of modern space. The destruction of the Hull House Social Settlement and the building of an urban campus, the University of Illinois at Chicago, is a case study in the nature of the often gendered and continuing contest over the public space of the city.
