Winner of the 1981 Woodrow Wilson Foundation Award for the best book
published in the United States on government, politics, or
international affairs. "City Limits radically reinterprets urban
politics by deriving its dominant forces from the logic of the
American federal structure. It is thereby able to explain some
pervasive tendencies of urban political outcomes that are puzzling or
scarcely noticed at all when cities are viewed as autonomous units,
outside the federal framework. Professor Peterson's analysis is
imaginativelyfor conceived and skillfully carried through. His
beautifully finished volume will lastingly alter our understanding of
urban affairs in America."—from the citation by the selection
