Berkeley Mayor J. Stitt Wilson: Christian Socialist, Georgist, Feminist
J. Stitt Wilson (1868–1942) was a leading American Christian Socialist. When he was elected Mayor of the City of Berkeley in 1911 he had to shift focus from the broad moral and economic case for socialism to the specifics of municipal reform. He drew on the ideas of Henry George, feminist urban reformers in the Woman's Christian Temperance Union and the settlement house movement, and progressive and socialist mayors who preceded him.

Land Rent and Housing Policy: A Case Study of the San Francisco Bay Area Rental Housing Market
In the San Francisco Bay Area, where residential rent is among the highest in the United States, an analysis of data from several sources demonstrates that high rent cannot be accounted for by higher quality, higher operating costs, or higher construction costs. At least one-third of the total rent paid is land rent. Despite increases in real incomes, very-low-income tenants in the Bay Area today have less income remaining after payment of rent t…
Comparing Court and Kennett Leadership Styles: Energy Sector Reform in Western Australia and Victoria
This paper argues that political leadership is primarily displayed by the achievement of goals. However leaders do not operate in a vacuum; they must achieve their goals in a social and economic environment that presents both challenges and opportunities. The extent to which leaders are successful, by that we mean display political leadership, depends on their leadership style. That is, the deployment of their institutional powers (with their own…
A Research Note on: Home Ownership in The Common-Interest Development
Over the past 20 years, there has been an important change in the structure of home ownership. For millions of Americans, home ownership is now accompanied by mandatory membership in a home owners’ association and by shared ownership of private property in a common-interest development (ClD), which includes condominiums, planned developments, and cooperatives. The CID adds complex new responsibilities to home ownership. These obligations are poor…

Sex Roles in Social Movements: A Case Study of the Tenant Movement in New York City
Many recent studies have documented the presence of sexism in American society, charted the oppressive impact of discrimination against women, and traced its sources.1 So ubiquitous is sexism, and so pervasive the engines supporting it, that, ironically, its trace may be found even within movements for social justice. A literature is now developing that describes the part women have played in social movements and the sexism they encountered there…
The Urban Housing Problem: Marxist Theory and Community Organizing
Rental housing is both a market commodity and an investment of capital. Under conditions of income inequality, extensive poverty, and residen tial segregation based on income, housing deterioration is a natural and even pro fitable consequence of the rental housing market. Changes in the relative posi tion of housing within the market cause buildings to lose exchange value though their use value remains the same. An owner then has a strong incent…
