SOC 220 Week 7 Discussion 1

Do you think conflicting interests can be reconciled, and if so, how? How do these problems compare with problems occurring in other urban areas, both nationally and internationally? How does the impact of urban development extend to rural communities? Are their benefits to the expansion? Why or why not?
