I study the contentious politics of urban development policymaking and planning.  Of late I examine the cultural and strategic conflicts in building and governing sustainable cities, particularly after disasters, given extreme events’ ability to shine a light on societal inequalities and urban change phenomena. I am especially interested in the role of the state and its non-profit partners in shaping and constraining the participation and power of disadvantaged groups, often in surprising or under-explored ways.  This intellectual project has two important sub-themes:

1) public housing and the state, especially the rights and opportunities of public housing residents to participate in planning and policymaking during neighborhood change, and the structural and cultural impediments to their participation. 

2) state influence on community resilience practice and meaning, which builds on my past work on how the state’s changing role as partner or adversary influences the political opportunity structures for community development practitioners charged with carrying out affordable housing and anti-poverty programs.
