Book excerpt: Today, U.S. cities large and small are grappling with housing shortages and pressure from property owners to limit development and adopt policies allowing few to no changes in their neighborhoods. Studies showing the disproportionate impact property owners have on local housing policies also provide evidence that these influences have severely impeded housing production over time. Unless changes are made, they will continue to do so, leaving an increasing number of U.S. cities with a worsening housing shortage. This thesis studies the community planning that took place in Venice in the late 1960s and early 1970s, reflecting the deleterious effects of a hyper-local planning focus on both current and future residents. Using archival research methods and a liberatory memory framework, I attempted to trace the dynamics underlying and surfacing during Venice Beach's community planning process in the late 1960s and early 1970s, a time when concerns about unregulated development and a community planning process deemed inadequate by almost all stakeholders shaped a community plan allowing little growth or change. A set of secondary sources informed my understanding of the agency community groups and leaders believed they had to influence this community planning process and track the cumulative effects of local municipalities enacting slow growth land use policy. This analysis showed that traditional planning processes, many of which have been in use for decades, privilege the sentiments of socially and economically dominant community voices. A regional approach to housing production can address the inequities produced by this dynamic - by widening our lens to think about what happens when most neighborhoods or cities in a region reject new housing production, issues with parochial planning are exposed. Efforts to set regional goals for housing and a regulatory structure to ensure those within a region contribute to it offer path toward addressing housing shortages. However, as we widen that lens beyond the loudest voices in the room, I believe we need to be vigilant not to lose the voices of the communities that have historically been marginalized by these processes and who resist oppression and plan for the future on their own terms.

This book was released on 2018-01-23 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los Angeles Documentary and the Production of Public History, 1958–1977 explores how documentarians working between the election of John F. Kennedy and the Bicentennial created conflicting visions of the recent and more distant American past. Drawing on a wide range of primary documents, Joshua Glick analyzes the films of Hollywood documentarians such as David Wolper and Mel Stuart, along with lesser-known independents and activists such as Kent Mackenzie, Lynne Littman, and Jesús Salvador Treviño. While the former group reinvigorated a Cold War cultural liberalism, the latter group advocated for social justice in a city plagued by severe class stratification and racial segregation. Glick examines how mainstream and alternative filmmakers turned to the archives, civic institutions, and production facilities of Los Angeles in order to both change popular understandings of the city and shape the social consciousness of the nation.

Book excerpt: This ethnography of a gang war in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Oakwood, just blocks from the famed Venice Beach boardwalk, provides a rare eyewitness account of the urban violence pervasive in the recent history of the United States. With seventeen people killed and more than fifty injured, the hostilities over ten months in 1993 and 1994 marked the peak of gang violence in the history of Los Angeles, a city once labeled the "gang capital of the nation." The conflict began as a quarrel among individuals, some of whom had gang affiliations. Over time, the feud engulfed families and soon grew into a sustained clash between African American and Latino gangs. Eventually, victims fell who were not members of opposing gangs, but who fit certain racial and gender profiles. The conflict began to take on the attributes of what one local newspaper sensationalized as a "race war." Karen Umemoto lived nearby during this conflict and undertook two years of ethnographic research during and immediately following the spate of killings. She now offers a nuanced analysis of the trajectory and eventual end of this acute crisis. Her interviews with gang members, neighborhood residents, business leaders, police officers, and gang-intervention workers reveal the complexity of contemporary American urban conflict. The Truce highlights the differences in interpretations among combatants, witnesses, and law enforcement agents and others whose actions often had unintended consequences. Drawing on her experience living in multicultural Los Angeles and on the latest scholarship in a wide variety of disciplines, Umemoto provides much-needed guidance for policymakers and concerned members of the public faced with violence in an ever-changing urban landscape.

Book excerpt: Student communities are without doubt a strategic resource for urban development and students are the citizens and the high-skilled working class of tomorrow. They are seen as an 'invisible population' with little say in local policy and decision-making. Co-operation between educational institutions and city planners is often missing and cities tend to neglect the universities' foreign relations. This volume argues that the importance of human capital in the competitiveness of cities demands pro-active, integral city policies targeting this community. Bringing together nine case studies of European cities (Rotterdam, Utrecht, Eindhoven, Munich, Lyon, Lille, Venice, Birmingham and Helsinki), it puts forward a comprehensive strategic plan of action, aiming at the integration of student communities in urban development. The book analyses the essential characteristics of the relationship between students and their host communities, as well as the role of higher education institutions and other actors in building the 'student friendly' city.
