Book Description
Excerpt from The Human Side of Urban Renewal: A Study of the Attitude Changes, Produced by Neighborhood Rehabilitation This is a study in challenge and response. The challenge is the slum and the spread of blight, and the response is the reaction to efforts at their amelioration. This is a study of the attitudes of people toward slums and neighborhood changes, of the modifications in attitudes that occur during the slum clearing or slum prevention process and after a certain stage of progress has been reached. The authors are experienced reporters. That is to say they are social scientists without preconceptions. They have been trained to observe and record facts and to draw their judgments without personal bias. They have done their job well; and this is not an easy accomplishment in an area as cluttered with preconceptions and as supercharged with emotion as is the one with which they deal. To many, the findings will be surprising. To some they will be disappointing and disturbing, for they show that the prevention and eradication of slums are not to be accomplished by physical measures alone or by measures limited to the condition of housing, but that profound changes in the hearts and minds of people, both in and out of the affected areas, are called for, and that any letdown in effort means retrogression, and that, in short, eternal vigilance and unremitting endeavor are the price of a good neighborhood. This is a pioneering study. To my knowledge no similar approach has been made to the question of why it is that well-meaning, presumably well-organized efforts to stop neighborhood deterioration and to revive neighborhoods that have already sunk have often come to so little, whereas other efforts, apparently no better sponsored, have had a fair degree of success. While the scope of the study permits of no more than tentative conclusions, it should provide at least the beginnings of enlightenment and point the direction for further investigation.
