Segregating Cities: An Arnold R. Hirsch Reader de Arnold R. Hirsch

Segregating Cities: An Arnold R. Hirsch Reader: Historical Studies of Urban America

Autor Arnold R. Hirsch Editat de Thomas J. Sugrue
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 7 mai 2026
Collects critical essays by the author of Making the Second Ghetto.
 
Arnold R. Hirsch (1949–2018) was one of the preeminent urban historians of his generation, a reputation cemented by his landmark book, Making the Second Ghetto. With compelling clarity, Hirsch demonstrated that segregation is not the inevitable result of individual choices, natural tendencies, or cultural traits—it is a structural phenomenon, reinforced on every level by state power.
 
Segregating Cities collects the author’s key essays, some previously unpublished, to reveal a more complete picture of a remarkable scholar and his exploration of race, place, politics, and policy in the twentieth-century American city. Together, these essays can help us see segregation for what it is, so that we can then begin to truly work to overcome it.

Recenzii

“Hirsch’s prose is at once careful and cutting, laying bare the structural and social forces that shaped our urban environment. Segregating Cities is authoritative, urgent, and humane scholarship. It’s a model and inspiration for anyone who values the truth about America and race.”

“As he did over four decades ago, Hirsch continues to enlighten us on the key actors, guiding principles, and policy choices that shaped US cities and their racial composition in the post-World War era. Lest we think that segregation, particularly in northern cities, happened naturally or by accident, Hirsch dives deep into local and federal policymakers’ and elected officials’ deliberations, their private comments, public pronouncements, and the frequent contradictions between the two. He shows us the consequences of their actions. He also highlights those who had the courage to defend racial liberalism, integration, and equitable policies for African Americans and other minorities. Hirsch has left an extraordinary legacy for urban historians.”
