FRUG, GERALD E. City making: building communities without building walls. Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 1999, 1st printing number line ending in 1, 256pp., . "American metropolitan areas today are divided into neighborhoods of privilege and poverty, often along lines of ethnicity and race. As Gerald Frug shows, this divided and inhospitable urban landscape is not simply the result of individual choices about where to live or start a business. It is the product of government policies - and, in particular, the policies embedded in legal rules. Frug presents the first ever analysis of how legal rules shape modern cities and outlines a set of alternatives to bring down the walls that now keep city dwellers apart." "He describes how American law treats cities as subdivisions of states and shows how this arrangement has encouraged the separation of metropolitan residents into different, sometimes hostile groups. He explains the divisive impact of rules about zoning, redevelopment, land use, and the organization of such city services as education and policing. He pays special attention to the underlying role of anxiety about strangers, the widespread desire for good schools, and the pervasive fear of crime. Ultimately, Frug calls for replacing the current legal definition of cities with an alternative based on what he calls "community building"--An alternative that gives cities within the same metropolitan region incentives to forge closer links with each other." - CONTENTS: pt. 1.

paperback. Zustand: Near Fine. DETAILS: PAPERBACK, near fine copy, appears unused. BERGER, ALAN L., ed. . Elie Wiesel: teacher, mentor, and friend : reflections by judges of the Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity Ethics Essay contest. Edited by Alan L. Berger ; foreword by Irving (Yitz) Greenberg ; afterword by Carol Rittner. Eugene, Oregon: Cascade Books, 2018, xxiii, 107pp., . Who was Elie Wiesel? He was a Holocaust survivor, Nobel peace laureate, activist on behalf of the oppressed, a teacher, a writer, and friend of humanity. Born into an observant Jewish family in Sighet, Rumania, he was a God-intoxicated youth who survived the Shoah. As an adult he moved easily among presidents and prime ministers but was equally at home among the poor and disenfranchised. The reflections in this volume come judges in the Elie Wiesel Ethics Essay contest. They share their personal and professional experiences working with and learning from Wiesel and provide a glimpse of the person behind the public figure. At a time when the future looks ominous, these reflections collectively hold out the promise of a more ethical and morally robust future. Their message reflects Wiesel's message about the abiding necessity of friendship; the importance of interrogating without abandoning God; the fact that everyone has a share in remembering--an obligation to remember--the past in order to construct a better future; and the importance of fighting against indifference. If we want to repair the world, we need to repair relations with each other and with ourselves. - CONTENTS: Elie Wiesel's ethics contest: twenty-five years of reading students' essays and being the better for it / Judith Ginsberg -- Is it possible to be seated and yet to dance?
