Political profiles of five mayors and their lasting impact on the
city Chicago’s transformation into a global city began at City
Hall. Dick Simpson and Betty O’Shaughnessy edit in-depth analyses
of the five mayors that guided the city through this transition
beginning with Harold Washington’s 1983 election: Washington,
Eugene Sawyer, Richard M. Daley, Rahm Emmanuel, and Lori Lightfoot.
Though the respected political science, sociologist, and journalist
contributors approach their subjects from distinct perspectives,
each essay addresses three essential issues: how and why each mayor
won the office; whether the City Council of their time acted as a
rubber stamp or independent body; and the ways the unique qualities
of each mayor’s administration and accomplishments influenced
their legacy. Filled with expert analysis and valuable insights,
Chicago’s Modern Mayors illuminates a time of transition and
change and considers the politicians who--for better and
worse--shaped the Chicago of today.
