Temporal materiality: Labour time, labour process and services
Time as an aspect of labour processes in services has not been discussed in the growing literatures on time in Marx's critique of political economy and time in capitalism. Some research in the sociology of service work investigates work hours and schedules but rarely interprets temporal processes with reference to the labour theory of value and underestimates how capitalism has transformed time. This article integrates those literatures and exami…
Hope for Cities or Hope for People: Neighborhood Development and Demographic Change
This study, recognizing the longstanding criticisms of HOPE VI as a vehicle for gentrification, compares the goals of local officials with the stated goals of HOPE VI in order to investigate the extent to which local officials are using or misusing HOPE VI to achieve local development and revitalization goals. HOPE VI positioned itself as a program intended to deconcentrate poverty, however, in the case of Liberty Green, the focus on neighborhood…

One Package at a Time: The Distributive World City
This article shifts the discourse on globalization and world cities from the commonplace and dominant foci on finance and advanced producer services to logistics and distribution, handmaidens of world trade. It focuses on one company (UPS Airlines) and one city (Louisville, Kentucky) in a case study that shows how local economic development efforts combined with expansion of air-cargo delivery services in the context of globalization to transform…
Creativity gaps and gender gaps: Women, men and place in the United States
This article situates Florida's (2002) work on creative regions in the United States in the context of a critical discussion of place and gender and investigates the gender–class structure of his most and least creative regions. It analyzes the distribution of creative class, working class and service class occupations by gender within those 21 regions as well as earnings, household income, poverty and educational attainment using data from the U…
Mobility from Part-Time to Full-Time Employment Among Kentucky Welfare Leavers
In this article we analyze mobility from part-time to fulltime employment among a panel of welfare leavers in Kentucky from 1998 to 2001. Using discrete-time hazard analysis, the study tests human capital, situational, and structural variables to determine which factors explain mobility. Among all panel participants, those who acquired full-time employment were more likely to reside outside Appalachia, to be high school graduates, to have had som…
Does the Creative Engine Run? A Consideration of the Effect of Creative Class on Economic Strength and Growth
Florida’s book, The Rise of the Creative Class, ranks 276 U.S. Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) according to a creativity index. This article explores whether the creativity index or its subco
Working Time as Gendered Time
Household-labor time and market-labor time are organized in part through the social structure of unequal gender relations. Generally, women do more household work than men, women's market work is undervalued, and the greatest rewards for market work accrue to men. The career model of employment is biased in favor of men who have few household responsibilities. Even noncareer seniority-sensitive job paths assume male incumbency with limited compet…

Industrial Restructuring and Regional Household Income Growth
NEGREY C., ZICKEL M. B. and FENN J. M. (1998) Industrial restructuring and regional household income growth, Reg. Studies 32 , 103-111. In this study industry and place intersect in a systematic examination of the effects of industrial restructuring on men's and women's personal income and married-couple and female-headed household income. We analyse income trends from 1969-89 in relationship to shifts in employment in: manufacturing; finance, in…
Industrial Shifts and Uneven Development: Patterns of Growth and Decline in U.S. Metropolitan Areas
The authors explore patterns of employment and population change in 140 U.S. metropolitan areas from the early 1970s to the late 1980s using U.S. government data. Their analysis generated a typology of six broad types of metropolitan areas suggestive of changing production functions. Regional patterns of change revealed by their typology suggested regional differences which they subjected to regression analyses to assess the relationships among c…

Unequal Partnerships: The Political Economy of Urban Redevelopment in Postwar America
Unequal Partnerships explores urban development in American cities since World War II. Gregory D.

They look at the political and social assumptions and interests shaping redevelopment, the social and economic costs of development for the vast majority of urban residents, and alternative approaches emerging. The book begins …

Deindustrialization in the Great Lakes
Deindustrialization-its nature, extent, and implications—is a widely debated public issue in the United States. In this article we review the arguments and discuss criteria for gauging deindustrialization in a locality, region, or nation. We then present findings that indicate the Great Lakes region is experiencing deindustrialization. The region is undergoing a structural decline in manufacturing; it claims a shrinking share of the nation's indu…
