{"product_id":"a-way-forward-daniel-p-gitterman-9780807873359","title":"A Way Forward: Building a Globally Competitive South","description":"In the last half century, North Carolina and the South have experienced rapid economic growth. Much of the best analysis of this progress came from two North Carolina-based research organizations: the Southern Growth Policies Board and MDC (originally a project of the North Carolina Fund). Their 1986 reports are two of the best assessments of the achievements and limitations of the so-called Sunbelt boom.\u003cbr\u003e On November 17, 2011, the Global Research Institute at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the Institute for Emerging Issues at North Carolina State University co-hosted a public discussion to build on these classic reports and to offer fresh analyses of the current challenges facing the region. \u003ci\u003eA Way Forward\u003c\/i\u003e, which issued from this effort, features more than thirty original essays containing recommendations and strategies for building and sustaining a globally competitive South. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel P.
