Description
A rigorously reported anthology on how local politics have fueled a generation-defining national emergency. This collection features long-form journalism by Atlantic writers, drawn from contemporary articles and classic storytelling from the magazine's 165-year archive. Atlantic staff writer Jerusalem Demsas examines the housing shortage, one of the country's most dire yet widely misunderstood public frustrations. She identifies the inefficiencies and irrationalities of contemporary land-use politics, offering a refreshing guide to a generational crisis. Through her authoritative expertise and keen eye, Demsas sheds light on how local democracies have become coconspirators in anti-development aspirations, at the expense of the many.
