Description
This volume presents a perspective on programs and policies designed to enhance the development of local and regional economics. The primary purpose is to provide an overview to assist economic development organizations in implementing competitive positioning programs and utilize IRM (information resources management) techniques. The first three chapters build the case for an information resources management (IRM) perspective on economic development. Chapter Four rounds out the discussion by proposing broad-based academic and governmental endeavors based on a perspective on economic development that is consonant with a rapidly changing, highly interdependent, global economy in today's Information Age.
