"Fitzgerald and Leigh have done a commendable job of providing not only the theoretical and historical dimensions of these issues, but also support them with examples and case studies that easily convince the reader that social equity and sustainability need not be sacrificed altogether in order to promote local economic development, even though small trade-offs may be necessary."

Descriere
InEconomic
Revitalization:
Cases
and
Strategies
for
City
and
SuburbFitzgerald
and
Leigh
answer
the
need
for
a
text
that
incorporates
social
justice
and
sustainability
into
how
we
think
about
and
practice
economic
development.
It
is
one
of
the
first
to
talk
about
how
revitalization
strategies
are
implemented
in
both
cities
and
suburbs,
particularly
inner-ring
suburbs
that
are
experiencing
decline
previously
associated
only
with
inner-city
neighborhoods.
After
setting
the
context
with
a
brief
history
of
economic
development
practice
and
its
shortcomings,
Fitzgerald
and
Leigh
focus
on
six
economic
development
strategies:
sectoral
strategies,
Brownfield
redevelopment,
industrial
retention,
commercial
revitalization,
industrial
and
office
property
reuse,
and
workforce
development.
