Race, Ethnicity, Class and Urban Spatial Conflict: Chicago as a Crucial Test Case
The research reported in this paper is an attempt to unravel the conflicting descriptions and explanations of black-ethnic political relations in cities. Three conflicting within-city models of white political behavior vis a vis blacks were explicated and tested using Chicago as a 'crucial test' case study. Little support was found for either the 'group competition' or 'class politics' models. The findings did support the Downs-Williams 'spatial conflict' theory. A pooled estimation analysis found the parameter estimates of the spatial variables to be invariant across three city elections.
