What is Inclusionary Economic Development—What if Employees Mattered?

George A. Erickcek

Economic Development Quarterly, 2023, vol. 37, issue 1, 27-33

Abstract: While several inclusionary economic development policies may appear similar to traditional economic development policies, they are different in focusing on four key concerns. First, they are more focused on creating greater economic opportunities for minorities and people struggling in poverty. Second, they promote policies that positively impact the economic and social well-being of future generations. Third, they encourage environmental and social sustainable development. Finally, the author argues that they should also concentrate on improving workplace conditions for all employees.
