The Hidden War

Crime and the Tragedy of Public Housing in Chicago

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

 Even well-intentioned initiatives such as the recent effort to demolish and “revitalize” the worst developments seem to be ineffective at combating crime, while the drastic changes leave many vulnerable families facing an uncertain future. The Hidden War sends a humbling message to policy makers and prognosticators who claim to know the right way to “solve poverty.”
