"Local economic development" as a book category covers theory, practice, and case studies focused on strengthening the economic base of cities, towns, neighborhoods and regions. Titles in this category typically explore strategies and tools for job creation, small business support and entrepreneurship, workforce development, infrastructure and site development, land-use and urban planning, public-private partnerships, local finance and incentives, and metrics for evaluating impact. Books range from academic treatments of regional and urban economics to practical guides for municipal officials, community organizers, economic development practitioners and planners, and often emphasize interdisciplinary approaches (policy, planning, finance, and social equity), place-based strategies, and real-world examples of successful and failed initiatives.
