Community economic development in the United Statesthe CDFI industry and America's distressed communities /[electronic resource] :by James L. Greer, Oscar Gonzales. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan US :2017. - xix, 213 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Market Failure and the Possibilities of Community Development -- (Re)Discovering Poverty and Economic Underdevelopment: Michael Harrington's The Other America: Poverty in the United States -- The CDFI Industry: Its Origins and Development -- Tax Expenditures and Social Policy -- Community Development Investment in the United States -- The Unequal Economy and the Community Development Movement.

This is the first scholarly analysis that examines the development and achievements of the American community development movement. Community development is now a multi-billion industry in the US. Hundreds of Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs), located in all regions of the country, have successfully forged locally-based strategies that provide affordable housing, foster business development, and provide much needed community facilities, including innumerable charter schools, in highly distressed communities in inner city neighborhoods, rural communities, and also in American Indian areas. In many areas of the US, CDFIs represent a viable alternative to the mainstream banking industry. This volume documents the positive impact the CDFI industry has had in distressed urban and rural areas in the US.
