Desegregating the City - David P Varady - Bog

"Desegregating the City takes a global, multi disciplinary look at segregation and the strengths and weaknesses of different anti segregation strategies in the United States and other developed countries. In contrast to previous works focusing exclusively on racial ghettos (products of coercion), this book also discusses ethnic enclaves (products of choice) in cities like Belfast, Toronto, Amsterdam, and New York. Since 9/11 the ghetto-enclave distinction has become blurred as crime and disorder have emanated from both European immigrant ethic enclaves and America's ghettos. The contributors offer a variety of tools for addressing the problems of racial and income segregation.
