| Description: |
The first part of the book makes the argument that community is beneficial not only because it makes us feel good but because it makes us act better and live better. The book investigates the “triple threat” to community: globalisation, the movement of capital and goods within the United States, and suburban sprawl. In the final two-thirds of the book, the authors discuss an array of strategies: employee stock ownership plans, municipal enterprises, community development corporations, micro-enterprise funds, community sustained agriculture, land trusts, cooperatives, job training, and transition aid. |
