Proposes a home-grown, community-based economic strategy meant to revive local marketplaces.
Reseña del editor
Public ownership, high taxation, and government funding have long been the formulas that progressives, government officials, and well-intentioned voters believed would aid the common good. Now, in this refreshing counter-blast to outmoded thinking, economist and activist Michael Shuman proposes a home-grown, community-based economics that uses market means to revive local economies -- while serving the needs of consumers and citizens across the political spectrum.
Throughout the United States, Shuman has studied such free-market initiatives as community corporations, localized banks, and community-friendly industry that preserve and strengthen the integrity of local communities. Erasing the gap between right-wing and left-wing economic concerns, Going Local is an encouraging, realistic proposal for how communities around the country can reinvent and revitalize themselves for the benefit of all citizen.

Very Good in Dustjacket. 0684830124. 306 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Rick Pracher. keywords: Sociology Politics. DESCRIPTION - National drug chains squeeze local pharmacies out of business, while corporate downsizing ships jobs overseas. All across America, communities large and small are losing control of their economies to outside interests. Going Local shows how some cities and towns are fighting back. Refusing to be overcome by Wal-Marts and layoffs, they are taking over abandoned factories, switching to local produce and manufactured goods, and pushing banks to loan money to local citizens. Shuman details how dozens of communities are recapturing their own economies with these new strategies, investing not in outsiders but in locally owned businesses. inventory #25514.
