Causes and Consequences of Segregation (Brian Knudsen, November 2019)

November 25, 2019 by

By Brian Knudsen (Journal of Affordable Housing & Community Development Law, November 2019). A review of Segregation by Design: Local Politics and Inequality in American Cities by Jessica Troustine.
Excerpt: “Political scientist Jessica Trounstine, a leading scholar of American local government politics, has written a remarkable new book sure to become a must-read for academics, attorneys, practitioners, activists, and citizens seeking to understand the causes and consequences of urban residential segregation over the past century. Combining historical study with qualitative and quantitative social science methods, her book hones in on the particular role of local government policy–especially around land use, zoning, and control of public services–in creating and perpetuating racially and economically segregated living patterns that persist to the present.”
