Summary

In 'The New Spirit,' Havelock Ellis delves into the evolving perceptions of sexuality, morality, and the human condition during the turn of the 20th century. The book is characterized by its introspective and candid tone, blending psychological insights with sociocultural critique. Ellis masterfully employs a blend of anecdotal evidence and historical context to illustrate the shifts occurring in societal attitudes towards sex, identity, and gender, presenting a holistic view of a rapidly changing world. This work is situated within the burgeoning modernist literary movement, which sought to challenge and redefine traditional norms and values. Havelock Ellis, a pioneer in the study of human sexuality and a key figure in the early sexual liberation movements, drew on his experiences and the intellectual currents of his time to craft this provocative work. His extensive research and progressive ideas were often considered avant-garde, positioning him as a controversial yet crucial voice in the discussions surrounding sexual ethics and personal freedom during an era marked by repression and strict moral codes. 'The New Spirit' is essential reading for anyone interested in the intersections of sexuality, psychology, and culture. Ellis's profound observations invite readers to reconsider their own beliefs in a time of profound change, making it a relevant and thought-provoking exploration into the complexities of human experience.

    How inequality was forged, fought over, and forgotten through public policy in metropolitan Chicago. As in many American metropolitan areas, inequality in Chicagoland is visible in its neighborhoods. These inequalities are not inevitable, however. They have been constructed and deepened by public policies around housing, schooling, taxation, and local governance, including hidden state government policies.In Structuring Inequality, historian Tracy L. Steffes shows how metropolitan inequality in Chicagoland was structured, contested, and naturalized over time even as reformers tried to change it through school desegregation, affordable housing, and property tax reform. While these efforts had modest successes in the city and the suburbs, reformers faced significant resistance and counter-mobilization from affluent suburbanites, real estate developers, and other defenders of the status quo who defended inequality and reshaped the policy conversation about it. Grounded in comprehensive archival research and policy analysis, Structuring Inequality examines the history of Chicagoland’s established systems of inequality and provides perspective on the inequality we live with today.
