Definition

  • The idea of growth coalitions (or “the growth machine”) in urban politics grew up in the 1970s and 1980s, especially associated with the work of Harvey Molotch, John Logan, and William Domhoff. They suggested that urban power politics were dominated by growth machines that have privileged developers over the wishes of local residents. [Source: Encyclopedia of Power; Growth Coalitions]
