Editorial Reviews
The Nation, Jane Holtz Kay
[Metropolitics] eschews both name-calling and urban handwringing to take a look at old geographies and new alliances in Minneapolis. [Orfield] acknowledges the demise of federal policies for cities. He understands the nation's destructive land-use practices and patterns and wants to reorder as well as arouse. Orfield's alternatives are political, but grounded in a broader landscape.... Metropolitics offers a lasso to join constituencies and enhance cities, not whip them.
