Abstract
This paper will attempt to look at urban decline and its causes
through an examination of the forces and institutions at work which
have caused cities to develop in the manner they have. A radical
analysis of urban areas is presented, in contrast with the orthodox
approaches typically taken by social scientists studying cities. This
project grew out of my own experiences working at the Edison
Neighborhood Association in Kalamazoo, Michigan. Though my
experiences there did not provide sufficient evidence from which to
draw conclusions, they did play a major role in determining my
theoretical positions. I will also call on my field experience to
provide anecdotal support for the theories presented.
