Abstract
Two significant historical events have created a receptive climate for this scholarly look at the American city. In the global context, the advent of multinational capitalism has transformed the city, along with other segments of the American economy. On the domestic front, increasing numbers of American cities have faced fiscal crisis, and in some cases, insolvency, in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
