A better read
Unheavenly City and The Unheavenly CIty Revisited.
Both very good books and they are peer reviewed.
"EDWARD BANFIELD's two books perform a service for the government official that none other has: They cut down his agenda. In place of a long list of troubles that are described as typically urban, Banfield reduces the prototypical urban problems to one. That's the persistent existence of a group of people whom he categorizes as "low-class." All the other difficulties of urban life--the bad housing, the obsolescent street pattern, the conflicts between metropolitan-wide necessities and the desires of communities and neighborhoods within the metropolis--are problems that urban governments and private economies are solving; indeed they are much nearer solution than ever before, as well as considerably less dangerous to life and health. By comparison, the "low-class" problem is not better, but worse."

It did seem Banfield was initially focused on urban planning. Incidentally, Murray coined the term "underclass" which while still having a pejorative connotation is less likely to provoke outrage than "low-class" (Banfield) or "poverty class" (Payne). A psychiatrist writes about this regulary in City Pages. His real name is Anthony Daniels but he is also known as "Dalyrmple" (sp?).
