«El Callejero» is the essay by Deirdre Mask, published by Capitán Swing in paperback (312 pages, in Spanish).
The essay shows how addresses and street names reflect identity, race and social class. Deirdre Mask explores the streets dedicated to Martin Luther King Jr., the orientation methods of the ancient Romans and the names evoking Nazism in Germany, and analyses what it means for millions of people to have no address.
Translated from English by María Porras, it was originally published as «The Address Book». It is part of Capitán Swing's Essay collection; first edition.
For readers interested in sociology, urbanism and social history, curious about how public space reflects inequalities.
