  • Progressive Innovation in the 1970S: Madison, Wisconsin, and the Conference on Alternative State and Local Public Policies
    Progressive Planning Magazine Progressive Innovation in the 1970s: Madison, Wisconsin, and the Conference on Alternative State and Local Public Policies JANUARY 22, 2007 by ADMINISTRATOR in WINTER 2007 By Jonathan Thompson Progressive cities in the United States and elsewhere have been most commonly understood as dealing with neighborhood mobilization, citizen empowerment and other forms of grassroots political involvement. Using the language of “the grassroots” in the U.S. and “civil society” for overseas cases, commentators have focused on the movement bases of progressive administrations. A different direction in progressive administration, however, can be seen in two cases from the 1970s, where the key factors were administrative and bureaucratic transformations effected by theoretically informed activist officials. In the first case, the first mayoral administration (1973-1979) of Paul Soglin in Madison , Wisconsin , there was a left-leaning administration moving to the center and “capturing” public sector bureaucracies in order to provide good governance for the entire city. In the second case, the Conference on Alternative State and Local Public Policies, which met for the first time in Madison in 1975, there was an attempt to showcase the progressive transformation of the bureaucratic institutions of local government happening across the U.S. In both these cases, progressive activists transformed themselves into officials and administrators who governed using pragmatic policies emphasizing good governance and the formation of cross-class coalitions for continued electoral support. At one level these are deviant cases—“normal” cities never faced even the possibility of movement activists taking control of government bureaucracies. Participatory and redistributive innovations and experiments were the exception, not the rule, in 1970s America .

  • A-Mifflin-Street-Historic-District.Pdf
    Regardless of one’s sympathies about the anti-Vietnam war movement, and the resulting violence, it is a plain fact that the events that took place in “Miffland” in the early May of 1969 and 1970 were some of the most dramatic moments in the history of the city. Social forces operating at the national and international scales became focused and dramatized at the intersection of Mifflin and Bassett streets. Classic American archetypes of authoritarian patriotism and radical, utopian populism clashed in wild scenes of anarchy and suppression. Understandably, many citizens of Madison regard the Vietnam era as a shameful period of civil strife to be at least covered up, and at best simply ignored or forgotten; yet to our descendants this period will surely be a fascinating study with vividly drawn battle lines and historic characters acting on their most deeply felt convictions. “A Mifflin Street Historic District” Preface, April 2019 This proposal was researched and written for a graduate course in historic preservation in 1993 and 1994. At that time, memories of the place called “Miffland” and the events of May 3-5, 1969 were fading. The 500 block of West Mifflin Street was quite rundown, but the Mifflin Street Cooperative was still operating. This proposal to create an historic district was presented to the City of Madison Downtown Preservation Task Force in 1994. No action regarding historic preservation of the area was taken. An historic designation nomination form for 32 North Bassett Street was commissioned by the Co-op, but not submitted. Some of the conditions described have changed since 1993, but remarkably the 500 block remains basically intact after an additional 25 years of housing Madison residents.
