In \u003ci\u003eInequality, Crime, and Resistance in New York City\u003c\/i\u003e, Timothy Weaver argues that the intercurrent impact of these orders has created a constant battle for power. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Weaver brings these clashes to the fore by showing how New York City politics has been shaped by these conflicting orders. He examines the transformation of the city's political economy in the aftermath of the 1975 fiscal crisis through neoliberal real estate development and privatization, the conservative rise of law-and-order politics in the 1970s to 1990s, and the efforts of the city's egalitarians to respond to each of these shifts through social movements such as Occupy and Black Lives Matter. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eInequality, Crime, and Resistance in New York City\u003c\/i\u003e belies glib assumptions about the city's liberal character. Weaver reveals the metropolis not as a homogenous political whole, but as a site in which the victories and defeats of rival political forces change the terms of local citizenship for the millions of residents who call the city home. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In the series \u003ci\u003ePolitical Lessons from American Cities\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTimothy P.R.
