This book provides a wide-ranging review of urban problems and
constitutes a major contribution to the mounting public debate that
these problems are attracting. Many of the problems - of social and
economic decay - are not new; indeed they are perennial problems of
urban societies. As the complexities and interdependencies of
modern life have increased, so has the resolve to combat the
environmental and social ills to which these give rise. The
particular focus of this volume is on the 'framework' of urban
problems - the changing demographic, social and economic structure,
the shortage of land and the transport needs of a highly complex
industrial society. A mass of facts and figures are neatly and
succinctly marshalled to provide a clear picture of the problems.
Stress is laid on the essentially political nature of these
problems and the alternative solutions. In essence, urban problems
are problems of social injustice, of disadvantage and of lack of
power. This book was first published in 1973.
