Description
Efforts to promote the economic development of individual localities engage the attention of academics, students and professionals.
Many such analysts argue that competitive advantage can be fostered within local economies, complimenting the advent of a more globalised economy.
Intensified efforts to build new economic foundations show no sign of abating despite the apparent increase in the international mobility of businesses and employment.
Unpicking the arguments supporting different strategies for promoting local economic development, Controversies in Local Economic Development is an introductory guide to some of the major ideas and policy tools that have influenced academic debate and development practice.
Taking the view that economic processes are mechanisms that promote desired outcomes only in particular contexts, the book asks questions of both academic debates and the prescriptions of policy experts.
