The Racial Dimension in Urban Political Economy
Race continues to play a critical independent role in determining urban outcomes for black Americans. Blacks remain segregated and economically disadvantaged. Their economic condition has deteriorated, with differences between races far more important than stratification among blacks. But the spatial and political containment of blacks during the last decade has reduced the effect of black populations on the economic fortunes of cities. As a resu…
The Ambivalent State: Economic Development Policy in the U.S. Federal System under the Reagan Administration
The Reagan administration reduced federal spending on urban and regional development just when the American economy experienced massive restructuring. Federal withdrawals, however, rather than simply reducing governmental intervention in markets, produced a shift of action to the state and municipal level. The impact of restructuring caused state and local governments, often under pressure from business, to create a de facto national economic dev…

The Underclass/Mismatch Hypothesis as an Explanation for Black Economic Deprivation
Economic Restructuring and the Rise of Urban Social Movements
The rise of social movements in postwar American cities has been associated with economic reorganization and urban redevelopment. But we argue that although economic change in the cities and social migration motivated by national economic forces provided the objective conditions within which movements arose, specifically political factors were determinative. The first part of this article explores in theory the linkages between economic change an…

Bureaucratic Enfranchisement under the Community Development Block Grant Program
Bureaucratic enfranchisement refers to the formal representation of a constituency within the policy implementation process. The focus of this paper is on the participation of lower income people in policymaking under the federal Community Development Block Gram (CDBG) program. A scheme for measuring bureaucratic enfranchisement disaggregates the term into the dimensions of mode, representation field, and scope. Participation in nine cities is as…
Neighborhood Enfranchisement and Urban Redevelopment
The consequences of redevelopment for working and lower class neighborhoods depend upon the extent to which their in terests are represented within the local regime and upon the economic situation of particular cities Political representation can be expressed by two analytically distinct dimensions, the one encompass ing electoral enfranchisement - the abili ty to capture mayoral offices and council seats — and the other bureaucratic en franchise…
New debates in urban planning: The impact of marxist theory within the United States
Support for Community Control Among Local Urban Elites
There are three typical interpretations of community control advanced by both analysts and activists: (1) minority group liberation, (2) community empowerment as a new-left program, and (3) community empowerment as a conservative program. Using these inter pretations, we analyze the attitudes toward community control of local elites in New York City in the period 1972-1974. Our findings indicate substantial levels of support for some form of comm…

Urban Political Movements: The Search for Power by Minority Groups in American Cities
The Future of Community Control
The nature of community control ideology, its relation to more general political consciousness, and its social correlates are explored. The primary data are drawn from two main sources: a survey of the attitudes of 362 civic and political leaders in seven districts of New York City conducted in 1972 using a combination of structural and reputational indicators to identify the sample; and intensive participant observation in three of these distric…

Class and Power in American Cities
City Planning and Political Values
City planners have increasingly come to interpret their mandate as a broad demand for social planning. In response to the many criticisms of master planning and urban renewal design as naive attempts to change society through manipulation of the physical environment, city planners have begun to seek wide training in the social sciences and to produce grand designs for social change. The recent New York Master Plan is an archetypal example. Moreov…
