Download or read book Local Governance Economic Development and Institutions written by G. Gomez and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Development' is what most people see as progress in the places where they live and in the ways they live. It has to do with public services, the ways to complain when these are not delivered properly, and the spaces to change power structures. It is related to the economy, the opportunities to access a secure job, a sustainable livelihood and increased welfare while caring for the planet and others. It is also linked to the institutions that allow people to live life well, using resources ethically and doing business responsibly in relation to other communities and future generations. This edited collection examines the interconnections between local governance, economic development and institutions, by focusing on what initiatives work and under what conditions they do so. Based on a variety of theories and empirical data, it presents evidence from current experiences around the world, revealed by researchers across different continents and several generations.

Download or read book Local Economic Development written by Norman Walzer and published by Westview Press. This book was released on 1995-11-02 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic development incentives and practices have grown in importance as cities have tried aggressively to rebuild their economies. The different types of incentives provided on the local level range from low-cost loans for small business entrepreneurs to the use of property tax abatements to lure large plants to a community. The effectiveness of development incentives varies from city to city, as attested to by the examples in this volume of cities where incentives work to boost the economy and cities in which growth management practices have been instituted. Local Economic Development presents current research on local strategies implemented by cities in Britain, Canada, Norway, Russia, Sweden, and the United States. By comparing the approaches used in these countries, an international cast of contributors points to the politics, problems, and successes in creating and implementing effective local economic development policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To enhance economic development is an important strategic issue not only for federal but also for local governments. Members of the Bertelsmann Foundation's network "Cities of Tomorrow" have collected twelve case studies of local economic development from all over the world. The case studies show how local authorities improve employment conditions in their community with regards to new job creation, accessibility of employment for the local workforce, job maintenance and the development of conditions favouring local economic development. The cases vary from exogenous and endogenous promotion, such as offering additional advantages to foreign and local enterprises, involving private, voluntary and non-profit sectors and developing training and employment initiatives, such as "48-hour job guarantee". This book is a veritable goldmine for local authorities aiming to strengthen the development of their local economy.
