Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology concerns the economic and demographic changes that have occurred in northeastern Ohio since 1960, but specifically during the 1970s and 1980s when that region's major industries (rubber, steel, automobiles) experienced severe decline. Sixteen chapters reflect on the reasons for industrial restructuring, the implications for population growth and future employment and investment opportunities, and the role of local, state, and national governments in undertaking policies that generate economic activity. Three themes dominate: the centrality of employment in regional development; the relation between economic development and product cycles (and thus the need to introduce new economic activities to the region); and the regional, national, and international constraints on local economic-development initiatives. Choice Much has been written concerning the erosion of the industrial base in this particular region and other areas of the country. Drawing heavily upon contributions from nationally recognized experts on urban and regional development as well as input from nanacademic sources, the present volume uses Northeastern Ohio as a case study of older industrial areas suffering from economic repression. Among the topics discussed are the limits of traditional development, fiscal implications of industrial restructuring, and urban adaptibility. Particular cities are also examined in order to pinpoint development problems and to offer alternative paths to local progress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Geographic research has been used to gain a better understanding of the human and spatial dynamics of local economic development. In these studies methods of inquiry use both qualitative and quantitative analyses to describe patterns of development at a variety of scales from discreet households to the global marketplace. Old industrial regions like the Ohio River Valley provide a setting to examine recent shifts in industrial production, namely from manufacturing to services over the past 35 years. This restructuring period in American economic history has been one of significant social, political and economic change. Many small communities in old industrial regions have struggled during the restructuring period to maintain levels of economic production. Changes in local economies occurred along with changes in local social and political structures, and have required improvement and expansion in local infrastructure and services as communities struggle to counter the effects of macroeconomic forces. Three case studies performed in this dissertation detail three different trajectories of local economic development and local social and political structures involved in economic decision-making. Local growth coalitions create strategies to improve the preconditions for development along these trajectories. In some cases strategies are accepted across a community, whereas in other cases competing strategies emerge, often creating local development conflicts. In the case of Jackson and Wellston, Ohio, a strong local coalition has developed strategies to increase the number of externally-owned firms and manufacturing jobs in the local area by increasing capacities in both physical infrastructure and services. In this case, preconditions for development have been achieved, however few jobs were created by their efforts. In the case of Nelsonville, Ohio competing local coalitions created a conflict over regional highway bypass, which threatens to take retail, and tourist business away from the town. Here investment opportunities were lost due to a lack of social cohesion. In the case of Dresden, Ohio a strong locally owned manufacturing firm, Longaberger Baskets, dominates local development decision-making. In this case the interests of local business people who benefit from secondary effects of Longaberger-based tourism and retailing are ignored, as a lack of local service improvements have significantly limited potential earning.
