Zusammenfassung:After decades of hand-wringing and well-intentioned efforts to improve inner cities, ghettos remain places of degrading poverty with few jobs, much crime, failing schools, and dilapidated housing.

Inner cities, writes Owen Fiss, are structures of subordination. The only way to end the pover.
