摘要:

ABSTRACT:Recent work in the politics of urban development is characterized to a significant degree by undertheorization. Concepts tend to be relatively concrete. The more abstract concepts through which they are necessarily interpreted lack the critical attention they should receive. Abstract concepts, therefore, do little for the interpretation of lower level concepts in terms of the higher. These contentions are illustrated by reference to recent arguments and studies in the politics of urban development.

摘要:

ABSTRACT:Three major structural changes affecting American society are identified and their impact on American urban ethnic groups is examined. The three changes are the restructuring of the US economy, shifting racial attitudes, and the return of mass immigration. The implications for ethnic groups are discussed with respect to financial gains or losses, segregation and hyperghettoization, job competition, growth of ethnic enclaves, and internal changes within urban ethnic communities. A revised model of the segmented urban labor market is suggested as a context for understanding these changes.

摘要:

ABSTRACT:Many analysts argue that important structural conditions exist that discourage city governments from engaging in redistributive policy, especially programs that create direct costs for private developers. Labeled the limited city argument, this logic concludes that only cities with sufficient levels of economic and fiscal well‐being can afford to impose upon private developers to meet social needs. Using survey data from 133 cities with populations over 100,000, this paper examines land use regulations that impose obligations or restrictions on the private sector to promote low income housing. The data suggest that the limited city argument is only part of the explanation. The use of regulatory housing policy is also correlated with measures of need and low income housing advocac

摘要:

ABSTRACT:Existing indices do not permit causal models of residential segregation within a single city or region. An index of inequality (II) is presented as an index of residential segregation. This alternative index can be interpreted similarly to the established index of dissimilarity (D) and can be used as an interval‐scaled variable within single city causal models. Data from the 1978 census of the Polish capital, Warsaw, were used as an example. Residential segregation by education in Warsaw can be explained in part by different housing condition

摘要:

ABSTRACT:Land and housing policies in New Delhi have great significance in urban policy. When the Delhi Development Authority was given substantial powers to purchase land and plan its use, it had the potential to innovate and create an example of “best practice” in urban development in developing countries. For a variety of situational, political, and managerial reasons, the opportunity was lost. This paper offers an explanation, evaluates the loss of potential, and indicates the reforms which are necessary to achieve better resu
