Answer BOTH questions (I HAVE ATTACHED THE READINGS NEEDED FOR THIS)
Maximum of 10 pages double-spaced, not including reference page
Use ASA or APA citation
You do not need to have a title page
Use quotes from the text to back up your argument where indicated, but you should mostly be paraphrasing in your own words

Midterm questions:
1) The Chicago School has been influential in shaping urban sociology. However, as we’ve discussed, it has also been critiqued and rethought by other scholars. A) Using quotes from the text and lecture material, explain what Robert Park meant when he argued that the city could be understood through the metaphor of ecology. B) Using Ernest Burgess’ perspective, describe how the city is remade through a process of succession. C) Thinking about segregation in the city, how would the Chicago School’s approach to explaining segregation differ from the approach of W.E.B Du Bois (use quotes from the text to back up your answer)? D) In 2017, Black people represented 8% of the population of Los Angeles County but they accounted for 23% of the arrests. Using specific ideas from Du Bois’ text and lecture material, how might you explain this disparity?
2) In urban settings, marginalized groups are constantly pushing to maintain their right to political and economic inclusion (i.e., equal citizenship). A) Using quotes from the text and lecture material, describe the components of an urban growth machine, including the actors that are involved, the roles that they play, and the values that they adhere to. B) Using Harvey Molotch’s ideas, how would you explain why it is so common to have “short-term homelessness” where renters are evicted and then struggle to find new housing? C) Looking at the Global South, explain James Holston’s theorization of urban resistance within marginalized peripheries and why day-to-day strategies used by favela residents in Sao Paulo can be thought of as claims to citizenship (drawing on quotes from the text). D) Explain, in your own words, what James Holston meant when he said that, today in cities, “there is an entanglement of democracy with its counters, in which new kinds of urban citizens arise to expand democratic citizenships and new forms of urban violence and inequality erode them.”
