New Jersey has a long history of adapting to a changing economic
climate. From its colonial origins to the present day, New Jersey's
economy has continuously and successfully confronted the challenges
and uncertainties of technological and demographic change, placing
the state at the forefront of each national and global economic
era. Based on James W. Hughes and Joseph J. Seneca's nearly
three-decade-long Rutgers Regional Report series, New Jersey's
Postsuburban Economy presents the issues confronting the state and
brings to the forefront ideas for meeting these challenges. From
the rural agricultural and natural resource based economy and
lifestyle of the seventeenth century to today's postindustrial,
suburban-dominated, automobile-dependent economy, the economic
drivers which were considered to be an asset are now viewed by many
to be the state's greatest disadvantage. On the brink of yet
another transformation, this one driven by a new technology and an
internet based global economy, New Jersey will have to adapt itself
yet again - this time to a postsuburban digital economy. Hughes and
Seneca describe the forces that are now propelling the state into
yet another economic era. They do this in the context of historical
economic transformations of New Jersey, setting out the
technological, demographic, and transportation shifts that defined
and drove them.
