The Department of Governmental Affairs was created to investigate problems related to metropolitan areas. Included in the collection are annual reports, correspondence, conference proceedings, research projects, photographs, and audio cassettes covering politics in the urban environment. Most of the records are from the late 1960s through the 1970s. The audio cassettes consist of interviews conducted around 1980 with leaders of Milwaukee's business, political, and cultural communities, referred to within the interviews as "community knowledgables." Each interviewee was asked the same questions concerning various challenges that the greater Milwaukee community would facing during the 1980s.
