这篇书评讨论了麦肯齐对共同利益开发社区(一种住宅组织形式)兴起原因的分析,并补充了经济力量视角,指出这类社区需在效率与居民民主公平间取得平衡。

Abstract

In Privatopia, Evan McKenzie documents the history and legal structure of common interest developments, a form of residential community organization. McKenzie also looks at possible explanations for the rising popularity of these organizations despite the fact that their governing associations may impose more onerous restrictions on residents' behavior than municipal governments do. In this essay, the reviewer discusses McKenzie's explanations and adds his own based on an appreciation of the underlying economic forces that have shaped these types of communities. The reviewer concludes that the challenge for common interest developments is to devise forms of organization that incorporate efficiency advantages while ensuring greater democracy and fair play for residents.
