In The Death and Life of Great American Cities, urban activist and writer Jane Jacobs critiques the urban planning practices of the 1950s and 1960s, arguing that they often harmed the vitality of cities. Jacobs challenges the prevailing notion that cities should be organized like machines, with segregated zones for residential, commercial, and industrial areas. Instead, she advocates for diverse, mixed-use neighborhoods that foster community interaction and social cohesion.
