This book takes a close look at the contribution of small firms
to the U.S. economy and at the contrasts between traditional
development policies and those often recommended to help the small
enterprise. The book offers systematic guidelines that will assist
economic developers, policy makers, and private citizens in their
efforts to promote entrepreneurship and assure sound economic
development at local and state levels. "Recent Publications on

The widespread interest in entrepreneurship as a means of
creating jobs and raising incomes has resulted in a growing demand
for an economic and political environment that will nurture small
business ventures. Accordingly, the promotion of entrepreneurship
has taken its place alongside industrial recruitment as a component
of economic developement policy. In this study, Benjamin Mokry
considers whether it makes sense to devise such policies without
first exploring more thoroughly the dynamics of entrepreneurship
and the possible impact of government initiatives. In a careful
analysis based on in-depth research on state and local development
policies, he points up existing information gaps and suggests a
realistic framework for approaching policy design in this area.
