Sommario/riassunto |
|
From protesting federal and local government initiatives to scale back public housing, tenant leaders and advisors in the early 1980s co-operated with a planning effort to privatise and downsize their communities. John Arena argues that the insertion of radical public housing leaders and their activist allies into a government and foundation-funded non-profit-complex is key to understanding this unexpected political transformation. |
