From State Capitols to City Halls: Smarter State Policies for Stronger Cities in Bloomington, MN

“Alan Mallach examines the crucial relationships between states and their constituent cities, illustrates how states have hindered equitable revitalization, and offers principles to guide state policy reform with an intentional focus on racial equity—namely, how urban revitalization can benefit low-income residents and communities of color, not just elites and commuters. . . . Mallach lays out successful strategies for public lead­ers to become true partners in bringing about inclusive, equitable revitalization through state policy.”
