The Egalitarian City: Issues of Rights, Distribution, Access and Power
( Each of the original articles collected in this volume ...)
Each of the original articles collected in this volume deals with one or more of the groups that traditionally have had problems attaining equality in the city. These include blacks, white ethnics, Hispanics, women, the young, the elderly, the handicapped, and homosexuals. The introductory essay draws on early writings about the city as well as contemporary research to provide an overview of the meanings of equality within the literature of urban affairs. The other contributions explore various aspects of urban egalitarianism, such as political, social, juridical, and distributive equality, equality of access, and equality of authority, influence, power, and control.
