Abstract
The article from the Atlantic Monthly discusses the decline in American mobility over the past 50 years and its impact on various aspects of society. It highlights the historical significance of mobility in shaping American prosperity, democracy, and social equality. The text explores the role of urbanist Jane Jacobs in advocating for neighborhood preservation, which inadvertently led to a decline in mobility. It calls for a reevaluation of zoning laws and housing regulations to restore mobility, economic growth, and social equality in the United States. [Extracted from the article]
