N1 - Funding Information: A large group of friends and colleagues have helped me not only to analyze the disaster, but also to alleviate the human difficulties of researching and writing about an event as traumatic as the heat wave. Foremost among them are the numerous Chicagoans, from all areas and institutions in the city, who shared with me their experiences in and thoughts about the disaster. I thank them for their countless contributions to the study. This article, and the larger project on deprivation in Chicago from which it stems, is much stronger thanks to the comments and suggestions of Manuel Castells, Kimberly McClain DaCosta, Barbara Epstein, Claude Fischer, Sam Kaplan, Michael Rogin, Mart|¨ n Sanchez-Jankowski, Jillian Sandell, Nancy Scheper-Hughes, Margaret Weir, and Kate Zaloom. A special note of gratitude goes to Lo|̈ c J. D. Wacquant, who has taught me the principles of sociological vision that guide this research and has supported this project – with remarkable energy and enthusiasm – at every stage of its development. I also thank the Theory and Society Editor whose extensive comments pushed me to clarify many points in the analysis, and Suzanne Lagershausen, who helped make the maps. The research has been supported by the Jacob Javits fellowship program of the U.S. Department of Education, a National Science Foundation graduate fellowship, and a research grant from the Humanities Division of the University of California, Berkeley.
