Question 1
In her book,
Naked City, Zukin argues that Jane Jacobs did not give sufficient attention to
◦ the importance of informal social control.
◦ the powers of banks and real estate companies to funnel capital in gentrifying neighborhoods.
◦ loft living.
◦ the positive aspects of gentrification.
Question 2
In his research on homelessness, Wright examines the connections among the social construction of space, redevelopment visions, and homeless identities. This leads him to argue that
◦ redevelopment policies usually include all groups in a city.
◦ homelessness is a matter of social welfare policy and must be treated that way.
◦ homelessness is an issue of land use directly connected to issues of gentrification displacement and the ideas of those in power about what a city should look like and who it should include.
◦ all of the above are true.
