Urban Issues

With study questions and commentary updated to reflect current events and theories, this edition of a collection of 12 readings from the CQ Researcher provides a range of issues for supplemental or even primary undergraduate reading. With pro/con boxes examining two sides of a single issue and a variety of photos, graphics and maps, the collection covers race, class and ethnicity, education, law enforcement and homeland security, and land use and urban development. Each topic includes a series of challenging questions, background, the current situation and an outlook along with notes and a bibliography.
