He grew up witnessing the cycles of development and decline characteristics of Kansas City and other American cities during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Once the symbol of a robust steel industry and blue-collar economy, Youngstown, Ohio, and its famous Jeannette Blast Furnace have become key icons in the tragic tale of American deindustrialization.

Even as the community organized a nationally recognized effort to save t... [Read More]
Since the 1950s and the advance of urban renewal, local governments and urban policy have focused heavily on the central business district. Today, promoters of downtown development still emphasize office and retail expansion, convention centers, sports arenas, festival market places, and tourist attractions. But, as the authors of this volume demonstrate, such development has all but ignored the inner-city neighborhoods that continue to struggle in the shadows of high-rise America.Revitalizing Urban Neighborhoods addresses that alarming oversight. This up-to-date analysis of urban neighborhood... [Read More]

Urban politics is often shaped by this conflict, which has intellectual as well as practical dimensions. In some cities, neighborhood interests have triumphed; in others, the pro-growth agenda has prevailed.In this illuminating comparative study, Barbara Ferman demonstrates why n... [Read More]

Neighborhood organizations have been hailed in recent years as promising a rediscovery of the roots of citizenship through decentralized government and participatory democracy. According to many skeptics, however, "local politics is groupless politics," as Paul Peterson asserted in his much-acclaimed 1981 book, City Limits. The area between citizen and city, these skeptics argue, is arid ground hostile to the survival of political life, such as neighborhood groups. Curiously, the advocates of these groups have yet to rebut this skepticism. No one has adequately explained where, why, and how ne... [Read More]
