Book party for Julian Brash, Anthropology program alum

Julian Brash is assistant professor of anthropology at Montclair State University.

“Brash’s insightful book provides the first thorough examination of the Bloomberg administration—increasingly touted as an example to follow by cities across the nation—and in so doing extricates the antidemocratic dimensions involved in the corporatization of urban government. Bloomberg’s New York should be immediately influential across urban studies disciplines.”
—Arlene Dávila, author of Barrio Dreams: Puerto Ricans, Latinos, and the Neoliberal City
