Neighborhood Planning and Community-Based Development
The Potential and Limits of Grassroots Action



January 2000 | 208 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc
Exploring the promise and limits of grassroots strategies for community organizating, development and planning, this book looks at how they can be used in the revitalization and maintenance of urban neighbourhoods.
