The Federalist System of the U.S. and Urban Politics
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page report discusses the relationships that exist between the federal government and American cities. Arguments against federalism claim that it infringes upon the rights of the states and therefore the rights of the citizenry. Such arguments are misplaced since a strong central government does not mean the loss of freedom and property rights and, in actuality, is needed to defend freedom and property. What is evolving as a greater concern in terms of federalist policy and concern is the issue of the role of the federal government in terms of urban issues, an area which had once been thought of as primarily the concern of individual states. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

The History of Joe Robbie Stadium (Pro Player Stadium)
[ send me this paper ]
A 15 page paper discussing Joe
Robbie's radical departure from the norm in gaining modern facilities for his Miami Dolphins.
Robbie bought the Dolphins in 1965, and the existing Orange Bowl had been their home
stadium for decades. Though the Orange Bowl stadium was 50 years old in the 1980s, local
government owners would not approve any substantial renovations and provided only minimal
maintenance. Joe Robbie managed some creative financing for his $110 million stadium,
building it in less than four years completely with private funds, none of which were his own.
The Robbie family sold both the stadium and the Dolphins to Wayne Huizenga after Robbie's
death in 1990, and a marketing arrangement has it renamed to Pro Player Stadium until 2006.
Bibliography lists 13 sources.
