Description
Understanding Local Economic Development Second Edition by Emil Malizia, Edward J. Feser, Henry Renski and Joshua Drucker provides valuable insights into the process and practice of local economic development. It bridges the gap between theory and practice, demonstrating how theoretical concepts can inform local strategic planning in regions with disparate economic performance. The book summarizes core theories of economic development, applies them to professional practice, and offers commentary on these theories. The second edition includes recent contributions, such as regional innovation, agglomeration, and dynamic theories, which present the major ideas informing economic development strategic planning, particularly in North America. This text provides theoretical insights that help explain why some regions thrive while others struggle, and how metropolitan economies rise and fall over time. It offers a logical tool for thinking about development, enabling readers to establish an independent basis for building local consensus and undertaking evidence-based action in the public interest.
