Urban Revitalization

By Donald B. Rosenthal

Volume 18 of the Urban Affairs Annual Reviews examines the process of urban revitalization from a variety of perspectives. The papers point, guardedly, to a measure of rebirth for the inner city through gentrification and redevelopment schemes. The contributors of the twelve articles examine both the current state of the American city and strategies for change, as well as providing comparative data from Britain and Latin America. They sum up our current knowledge of the metropolitan rebuilding process and its chances for success. Their findings should be of great interest to academics, policy-makers, planners, and administrators.
