Housing + Capitalism: Neoliberalism, the Underclass, and Urban Renewal

Using historical and present-day examples, this event outlines the political forces that shaped today's housing system and what change could look like moving forward. Introduced by Daniel Moak, Associate Professor of Government and author of From the New Deal to the War on Schools: Race, Inequality, and the Rise of the Punitive Education State (2022).
