City Politics: Cities and Suburbs in 21st Century America
Autor Annika Marlen Hinze, Dennis R. Judden Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 iul 2022
The book’s enduring appeal lies in its persuasive explanation, careful attention to historical detail, and accessible and elegant way of teaching the complexity and breadth of urban and regional politics which unfold at the intersection of spatial, cultural, economic, and policy dynamics. This 11th edition has been thoroughly updated while retaining the popular structure of past editions.
Key updates include:
• Individual chapters introducing students to pressing urban issues such as race and racism, gentrification, sustainability and the environment, urban crises, shrinking cities, immigration, and suburbanization, political polarization, and the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on cities
• The most recent census data integrated throughout to provide current figures for analysis, discussion, and a more nuanced understanding of current trends.
• The effects of the events of 2020 on cities – namely the Coronavirus pandemic; the murder of George Floyd and its aftermath, and the growth of the Black Lives Matter Movement; and the U.S. presidential election in November
• The new and present challenges of the climate crisis, and its growing significance for cities.
Taught on its own, or supplemented with the optional reader American Urban Politics in a Global Age for more advanced readers, City Politics remains the definitive text on urban politics – and how they have evolved in the United States over time. This is a comprehensive resource for a new generation of undergraduate and graduate students, as well as established researchers in the discipline.

Recenzii
Praise for the 11th edition:
"This new edition of City Politics continues the masterful weaving together of urban history and contemporary urban challenges that set previous editions apart from other texts. Hinze and Judd present a compelling story of how history shapes the basic contours of urban governance and the urban experience. The politics of growth, governance, and metropolitan fragmentation provide important themes that tie together the urban political experience. With current examples throughout, this book provides students an invaluable lens to better understand urban America in a world driven by private power, growing inequalities, and intergovernmental tensions."
John Portz, Northeastern University, USA
"City Politics has long been the premier text on urban government and politics in the United States, and the new edition continues this tradition of excellence. The book is of course an outstanding textbook, but it is also useful to scholars in the field of urban politics. The writing is crisp and engaging, the coverage is broad, and the latest edition is as up to date as one could get."
Mark D. Brewer, University of Maine, USA
"City Politics is a well-written and very informative book. It is perfect for anyone teaching Urban Politics at the undergraduate level. I recommend this book highly."
Richard Groper, California State University, Northridge, USA
"The 11th edition keeps relevant this classic textbook on the challenges of urban governance. Its readable yet detail rich chapters offer students crucial historical context while centering the urgent political and policy questions that speak to today’s moment."
William D. Goldsmith, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA
Praise for the 10th edition:
"The 10th edition of City Politics is a masterful continuation and expansion of the premier textbook about the evolution and contemporary state of urban America. Judd and Hinze vividly capture the changing interplay of private power, public action, and group identity in the development of the nation’s cities and suburbs. This edition’s well-crafted chapters bring urban politics to life in ways that enable students as well as advanced readers to understand the past and to appreciate the complexity of current issues dividing America today. It is a winner – again!"
Paul Kantor, Fordham University, USA
"City Politics is an indispensable textbook on urban politics in America. American cities are characterized by remarkable economic dynamism, but also by deep social divisions. Taking a historical approach, the book clearly shows how politics has shaped and reproduced these enduring hallmarks of the American city. With lively, accessible writing and thorough treatment of key current issues, this text is perfectly suited for a wide range of introductory urban studies courses."
Martin Horak, University of Western Ontario, Canada
"In this important new edition of City Politics, Judd and Hinze assemble an interdisciplinary group of scholars who contextualize the historical importance and current day realities of urban centers in America. In doing so, they assist us in better understanding the local constraints, varying waves of immigration, the ebb and flow of city fortunes, resurging racial tensions, and the effects of deindustrialization and globalization processes. City Politics also helps us process the complex relationship between local, state, and federal institutions and their effects on the lives of ordinary citizens. As growing inequality continues to affect so many facets of American life and its citizenry, City Politics continues to be a necessary text for a broad audience interested in solutions to ingrained inequities."
