Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on postwar Long Island, the book reexamines American suburbanization by highlighting the roles of poverty and inequality over wealth and freedom. It argues that employment, rather than housing, was a primary driver of suburban development and segregation. Keogh contends that housing discrimination stemmed from deeper systemic issues, suggesting that suburbs prioritizing housing policy without addressing employment opportunities were destined to struggle. The author aims to inspire more effective solutions to modern inequity by reshaping the historical narrative.
