Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the dynamics of local governance, the book examines how interest groups influence public policy concerning policing, housing, and economic development in U.S. cities. It highlights the limited role of federal oversight and reveals the complexities behind local decision-making, such as zoning laws that hinder affordable housing initiatives. By analyzing the challenges faced by progressive reforms in policing and housing density, the author enhances understanding of local political processes and the significant impact of interest groups on these critical issues.
