About
Despite the pundits who have written its epitaph and the latter-day refugees who have fled its confines for the half-acre suburban estate, the city neighbourhood has endured as an idea central to American culture. In 'A Nation of Neighborhoods', Benjamin Looker presents us with the city neighbourhood as both an endless problem and a possibility. Looker investigates the cultural, social, and political complexities of the idea of 'neighbourhood' in postwar America and how Americans grappled with vast changes in their urban spaces from World War II to the Reagan era.
