Towards the comparative exploration of public housing segregation in England and the United States
This paper is an exploration of the treatment of racial minorities by public sector housing agencies in Britain and the United States over the last several decades, with the objective of describing empirical and policy differences and similarities. Public housing programmes in each country have been, at differing points in time, important cornerstone's of the welfare state but each has become a residualised sector of the housing delivery system. …
A Fragile Movement
Investigating Public Housing Segregation
We investigate the concepts and evidence needed to understand the extent of racial segregation in the federal public housing program operating in metropolitan areas throughout the United States. Over one million units of public housing in urban areas constitute an important, but poorly understood, component of overall housing market segregation. Using data from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, we describe the degree, distribu…
Introduction and Overview
The ‘Explosiveness’ of Chain Migration
This is an introduction to Volume 23, Number 4, of the International Migration Review. This issue "focuses on the legislative and social science interface concerning the complex issue of whether the current system of United States legal immigration is promoting or facilitating an 'explosive' multiplication of immigrants.... The purpose of this collection of articles is to present the most current evidence and policy analyses of the size and compo…
Resolute ignorance or political straw man
Race, Housing, and Public Policies
This article proposes some of the components for a social science strategy for conducting policy-relevant research on fair housing issues. Three components are proposed for the development of a more comprehensive strategy aimed at racial discrimination and integration. Included in this analysis is a discussion of major conceptual, methodological, and analysis issues related to race, housing, and public policies
Towards a National Policy for Neighborhoods
T he following is a simulation of a private conversation between a member of the White House domestic policy staff and a prominent urban research specialist on the topic of a national policy for neighborhoods. The conversation was prompted by the release of the National Commission on Neighborhoods report to the President on their 15month, million dollar search for new policies and programs for neighborhoods.' The policy maker requested expert adv…
The Best Eight Blocks in Harlem
Housing and Urban Redevelopment
Three theories of the degree of success of community participation in housing development—class/cultural, bureaucratic tasks, and vested interests—are applied to two case studies in New York City. The class/cultural theory is not successful in explaining the case studies, while the bureaucratic tasks and the vested interests theories are useful
Race and Residence
Horatio Alger
Despite the riots, radical movements and demands for community controls of the 1960's, social scientists and social workers have noted the perserverance of many non-radical, traditional institutions in ghetto neighborhoods. Some of these institutions, like settlement houses, still advance the ideas of hard work, hoensty, competition, and individual achievement which are at the heart of the American dream. These institutions were often around long…
Public transportation and black unemployment
Changing Perceptions and Evaluations of Physical Characteristics among Blacks
FOR MOST BLACKS the idea that is beautiful is a simple statement of fact.' For black Americans, pride in themselves and their culture, so long smothered in a predominantly white society, is now a pervasive reality.2 There is often, however, no clear program or substance to the idea of thinking black and, consequently, it is difficult, possibly even irrelevant to attempt to measure its pervasiveness. Despite the difficulties, one cross-sectional s…
The Emergence of Ethnic Interests
Stable Workers, Black and White
study of stable working and middle-class men, both black and white, shows two comparative tendencies: 1) the two races are similar on job aspirations and satisfactions, both races indicating economic ambition, a sense of personal security in employment, adequate advancement on the job and in consumption, and high hopes for children; 2) the two races differ in political perspectives, with the blacks indicating a sense of partial marginality to the…
Intervention Research and the Survey Process 1
The Structure and Processes of Ethnicity
There is a tendency in demographic research to employ “values” as the explanation of religious and ethnic differentials in family size. A more valuable method of conceptualization has been found by examining the structure of the Irish and Italian ethnic groups and the processes involved in their assimilation. It is found that age at marriage and social class factors are of major importance in understanding the behavior of these two groups. Cross-…
