I empirically demonstrate this “differentiated state” based on a grounded case study of disparities in disaster recovery participation in Rockaway. This analysis offers a new spatial lens to the scholarship on policy feedbacks and delivers a new synthesis of the limits to tenants’ political participation in conventional public housing developments in the United States, home to more than two million people. – Reproduced Public housing, Disaster recovery, New York City, Participation, Policy feedbacks 19464 Urban Affairs Review PUBLIC HOUSING AR 0 0 ddc 0 0 388645 IIPA IIPA 2020-11-25 56(1), Jan, 2020: p.289-324 AR124122 2020-11-25 AR
