Implementing Sustainable urban development programs requires addressing three primary long-standing tensions in American cities: (1) the often contentious balance between governmental authority and the
operation of a “free-market” economy; (2) the tension between central-city and community empowerment; and (3) the conflict between professionalism and democracy. Based on class discussions and
readings (notably Portney’s book) analyze how proponents of sustainable urban development try to manage these tensions in devising their plans to fashion development that is both sustainable and politically
feasible.
