Abstract

This paper focuses on the process of constructing identity and place within the context of the emergence of Los Angeles as a world city. This construction of place and identity is riddled with tension and conflict. Issues of identity politics, territoriality and power relationships provide the context of social interaction in the construction of place and identity. The paper uses a case study that examines the development of little San Salvador, an inner city enclave or neighborhood of Los Angeles, California to explore this dialectical relationship.
