The first installment of the Insiders' Guides To Community Renewal, The Root of the Matter supplies a brief historical context to the separation of economic decision-making from social relations and environmental values. Community economic development requires an approach to local revitalization that encompasses the social and environmental, as well as the economic dimension of life. The estrangement of the economy from other values is a recent invention that has brought both good and ill. Can this go on? Must it?
