Description
America's continuing frontier experience was characterized in the 1960s by numerous low density metropolitan areas whose development was based upon transportation and communication possibilities and the new technologies of the industrial revolution. The new metropolitan landscape bred new forms of social organization and behavior, which found their echo in the political process. This study represents a significant contribution to our understanding of the political process in the crucial decade of the 1960s and examines the consequences of the Great Society at a turning point in its fortunes. Using Champaign-Urbana as the basis for a medium-sized metropolitan area, this volume is one of a series of efforts to examine the long-term trends in American development. Co-published with the Center for the Study of Federalism.
