Description
Here is a book that makes sense of the L.A. riots, homelessness, tax giveaways, and the other big urban issues that are back in the national spotlight. In this streamlined and updated new edition of his classic book, The Dependent City, Paul Kantor focuses on economic development and social welfare policies to reveal the key dilemmas of American urban politics and to show how American cities can find ways of overcoming economic dependency. The Dependent City Revisited is accessible, provocative reading for students of urban studies and political economy as well as for anyone who is interested in understanding America's urban mosaic.
