The initial three contributions (of 18) offer an overview of rural wealth creation, discussion of wealth concepts, and presentation of wealth accounting--place-based and people-based measures
and how to bridge them. Subsequent articles discuss valuing human and built capital at the community level, whether there’s a rural difference when measuring the net worth of households, public
sector wealth and its control, and strategies related to emerging energy industries, Federal forest policy, entrepreneurship, farmers’ markets, attracting retirees, and casino development. The
final contributions discuss a typology of approaches and offer conclusions and implications. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
