  • The Making of a State‐Sponsored Heroine

    Open AccessAndrew S Jacobs, Andrew JacobsARTICLEHistory2024

    This article uses Angela Davis' 1972 visit to the Soviet Union to explore the continued connections between the Soviet Union and African Americans.

    Open AccessAndrew S Jacobs, Andrew JacobsARTICLEJournal of Russian American Studies2021

    This article examines the 1972 Soviet-American Youth Conference as a transnational event during the détente era, exploring its attempt to foster solidarity and mutual understanding between Soviet and American youth.

  • Gentrification and the Heterogeneous City

    Sally Harrison, S C Harrison et al.ARTICLEThe Plan Journal2017

    That cities will change is indisputable: urban evolution mostly signifies healthy growth, but it is also true that in the contemporary context, gentrifying neighborhood change increasingly operates on an extraterritorial plane, happening quickly, opportunistically and unilaterally. Neighborhoods are evaluated and disposed of as trading commodities in a process that violates the citizen's fundamental right to the expectation of a stable dwelling s…
