Experiences of Policing in Gentrifying Neighborhoods: Evidence From Chicago
Do patterns of unequal policing persist or transform within gentrifying neighborhoods? Using an original survey of Chicago residents, we assess whether gentrifiers and longtime residents experience policing differently. Building on macro-level studies which rely on aggregate population data and micro-level studies which rely on ethnographies and interviews, we conduct a meso-level study that compares the experiences and views of differently posit…
Who Governs Now
Conventional wisdom holds that local democracy is more responsive because it is closer to the people. Political science research suggests we should not be so optimistic. Scholars have long been studying American local governments, but, for a generation the field was relegated to the sidelines of political science. A new generation of scholars is bringing it back to the center, using an increasingly sophisticated set of research methods. Sarah Anz…
The state of urban research: Views across the disciplines
An "urban" subfield exists in virtually every social science discipline, but these subfields seldom engage one another. We asked scholars from five urban subfields to respond to questions about the state of urban research within their discipline. This article consists of their consequent essays and reflections on their responses. The questions posed included the discipline's conception of "urban," the main concerns motivating the subfield, the pr…
Close to Home: Place-Based Mobilization in Racialized Contexts
How do racially concentrated policy changes translate to political action? Using official election returns, the Cooperative Congressional Election Study, and original data on the unprecedented mass closure of schools in segregated, predominantly Black neighborhoods across Chicago, we demonstrate that those living in the communities affected (1) increase their attendance at political meetings; (2) mobilize in support of ballot measures to avert fu…

Antiracism Without Antiracists: How Urban Insitutions Transform National Politics
This pivotal chapter draws on the insights of city delegation theory and uses a mixed-methods approach to help explain one of the most important changes in American political history—the midcentury partisan realignment in response to civil rights. Using a wide range of evidence and analysis, this chapter illustrates how city representatives, including those with all-white constituencies who were not particularly supportive of civil rights, were c…
Building an American Empire: The Era of Territorial and Political Expansion
For a self-avowedly forward-looking society, always bounding toward the next big thing, we Americans spend a lot of time lost in gauzy nostalgia. Recently, though, perhaps prompted by the seething 2016 campaign, recurrent controversies over Confederate memorials, or the most basic observations about the criminal justice system, thoughtful observers are reexamining national myths to properly see the importance of race in American history. In the e…
Pride or Prejudice: Racial Prejudice, Southern Heritage, and White Support for the Confederate Battle Flag
Debates about the meaning of Southern symbols such as the Confederate battle emblem are sweeping the nation. These debates typically revolve around the question of whether such symbols represent "heritage or hatred:" racially innocuous Southern pride or White prejudice against Blacks. In order to assess these competing claims, we first examine the historical reintroduction of the Confederate flag in the Deep South in the 1950s and 1960s; next, we…
