Political Culture as a Catalyst for Political Change in American Cities

Urban scholars generally agree that structural constraints limit the capacity of public officials to govern their cities efficiently and equitably. This paper considers how a transformation in the local political culture may expand policy options. Ronald Inglehart's theory of postmaterial cultural change and Antonio Gramsci's theory of hegemony/counterhegemony are evaluated in the context of one of the more successful urban protest movements during the past two decades - the San Francisco growth-control movement. The Gramscian framework may provide the more promising approach to understanding enduring cultural/political change in American cities
