Exploring the interplay between social structural change and political power during this period, John Mollenkopf asks why a city with a large minority population and a long tradition of liberalism elected a conservative mayor who promoted real-estate development and belittled minority activists. Through a careful analysis of voting patterns, political strategies of various interest groups, and policy trends, he explains how Mayor Edward Koch created a powerful political coalition and why it ultimately failed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68077882310944,"sku":"NEW069103673X","price":29.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81uAhucCWkL.jpg?v=1793470285","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/en-gb\/products\/a-phoenix-in-the-ashes-069103673x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
