Examines the relationship of civic discourse to built environments through a case study of the Cabrini Green urban revitalization project in Chicago.Combining a detailed case study of Chicago's Cabrini Green urban revitalization project with the concerns of modern political philosophy and rhetorical education, David Fleming examines the relationship between public discourse and the built environment in the contemporary United States. For more than half a century, low-income African American residents of the Cabrini Green public housing project have struggled against the extreme spatial inequality of their metropolitan region. The author examines three different options considered as part of revitalization efforts for the neighborhood: the dispersal of the project's residents into the largely white suburbs of Chicago; the building of a low-rise, mixed-income urban village on the same site; and the conversion of one of the original buildings into a democratically governed, not-for-profit housing cooperative.>David Fleming is Associate Professor of English and Director of the Writing Program at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.
