The Author tries to show how ethnic can intersect with the world of alternative artistic and intellectual culture and what the consequences of such a phenomenon for the transformation of the ethnic neighborhood and its status among the diaspora can be. The analysis is embedded in the historical and humanist perspective, accentuating the “longue durée” process, emphasizing the importance of the area and the social relations going on there for their users. Such an approach allows to form a final question on the possibility of conceptualizing this particular ethnic neighborhood in terms of cultural heritage of the immigrant group.}, doi = {10.4467/25444972SMPP.20.028.12592}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/smpp/artykul/immigrant-life-in-an-artistic-district-polish-and-ukrainian-immigrant-community-and-the-new-york-bohemia-of-east-village} }
