Protecting One's Turf is a qualitative study that both analyzes informal residential segregation and investigates the effects of racial segregation. The focus of the study is Greenpoint, a working-class neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. The book's first edition chronicled the community-wide strategies employed to maintain a predominantly white community in Greenpoint. The revised edition examines the community's continuing gentrification.
