National Urban Economic Development Policy
National development policy must address uneven economic performance, disparities in unemployment rates, and income inequities between city and suburban residents and between minority groups and whites. The goals of such a policy are improved economic performance and the reduction of intrametrpolitan disparities in the economic well-being of residents. Four policy approaches are identified: productivity enhancing policies, cost reduction subsidie…

Plant Closures and Local Economic Conditions
ROWLAND M. (1988) Plant closures and local economic conditions, Reg. Studies 22, 193–207.) This paper tests the hypotheses that plant closures are influenced by local production costs, local rates of unionization, changes in local production costs, and local and national market growth. Using data on three of the three-digit Standard Industrial Code industries of metalworking machinery, electronic components, and motor vehicles, the study finds th…
Labor Market Conditions and the Reemployment of Displaced Workers
The authors of this study use data from the January 1984 Current Population Survey to examine the impact of local labor market conditions on the financial losses of displaced manufacturing workers. They find that strong overall growth in the local economy reduced the economic losses of white-collar workers whose industry of displacement was declining, but not of blue-collar workers in the same situation. Most older, poorly educated blue-collar wo…
Regional Variations in Cyclical Employment
In this paper the author develops and tests a model of regional responses to national business-cycles. The model divides cyclical decline in each state into two sectors: a basic sector and a nonbasic sector. The industrial mix, capital—labor ratio, age of capital stock, level of unemployment insurance benefits, labor shortage, and extent of labor-force unionization of a state are hypothesized to influence the response to national recessions by th…
The Effect of Business Cycles on Metropolitan Suburbanization
This paper presents evidence that the process of metropolitan decentralization depends upon rates of national economic growth. The rate of suburbanization accelerates during expansions in the national economy and then declines when the national economy is sluggish. This uneven process of suburbanization occurs because during periods of strong national economic growth net investment rises. Investors, those considering both expansion at on-site loc…
