Book Description
A study to evaluate informational needs of manpower planning in the District of Columbia and the metropolitan area of which it is the central city. The ultimate objective of this evaluation is an improved system for gathering, analyzing, and presenting information for manpower planning purposes. The study will attempt: 1. to identify the information requested to plan and develop manpower programs required to meet the needs of residents of the Washington, D.C. area, its major jurisdictions, and subareas where manpower needs are concentrated; 2. to assess the adequacy of currently available data resources for manpower purposes; 3. to evaluate the effectiveness with which these resources are now being utilized; to assess the current characteristics and needs of the unemployed and sub-employed population which are relevant to manpower planning, based on the 1970 census and other pertinent data; 5. to develop practical and efficient methods for updating this information on an annual basis hereafter; 6. to assess perceived needs and actual hiring practices of employed in the area in relationship to the characteristics of the labor force--as well as of those who might enter the labor force if conditions permitted; 7. to recommend methods for using available information to the best advantage in designing manpower planning programs, and for allocating manpower funds equitably to specific subareas and target groups on the basis of relative need; 8. to recommend sound procedures, based on the manpower information developed or reviewed in this project, for the guidance of other metropolitan areas.

Book Description
"This sophisticated account of a remarkable city's coalitions and conflicts over half a century is an outstanding contribution to urban history and political analysis. Clearly written and amply supplied with good stories, the book will interest students of urban history, social movements, and American political change."—Charles Tilly, author of Durable Inequality "An altogether exemplary book. Rhomberg uses a combination of traditional class analysis, an institutional perspective on urban politics, and social movement theory to fashion a rich and persuasive account of the history of urban political conflict in Oakland between 1920-1975. In combining these strands of theory and research, he has also given us a model for the kind of dynamic, historically grounded political sociology that has been sadly missing in recent years."—Doug McAdam, author of Freedom Summer "Race, class, and local politics are key components of America's social fabric. On the basis of his outstanding scholarly research, Rhomberg examines the complex web of their interaction by focusing on one of the most conflicted urban scenes: Oakland, California; and taking a historical perspective on the evolving pattern of power struggles. This book will become required reading for students of urban politics."—Manuel Castells, author of The Rise of the Network Society “No There There combines a sophisticated interpretation of political and sociological urban theory with rigorous historical research… An important and stimulating book.” –Joseph A. Rodriguez, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Western Historical Quarterly
