Description:
How do public power and private resources interact in the governance of cities? What changes have occurred in our cities governing processes over the years? This interesting resource covers the essential topics in urban political economy. Issues of inequality, ethnic and racial tensions, and political fragmentation and spatial segregation have defined urban politics throughout the nation's history. This collection of readings shows that the recent focus upon urban unrest, crime, poverty, racial segregation and immigration are but the latest expression of long-term development. Historians, politicians, educators.
