D) Ernest Burgess - isn't he the guy who did the concentric zone model? I don't think that's the right answer here.

Home Hoyt? Really? I don't think that's even a real person. This exam is testing our obscure urban theory knowledge!

I was leaning towards B) Harris and Ullman, but now I'm second-guessing myself. Maybe I need to revisit that theory.

I'm pretty sure it's A) Logan and Molotch. That theory really captures the way cities are driven by growth and development interests.
