Description
In the years following its near-bankruptcy in 1976 until the end of the 1980s, New York City came to epitomize the debt-driven of the Reagan era. This book asks why a city with a large minority population and a long tradition of liberalism elected a conservative mayor who promoted real-estate development and belittled minority activists.
