* From [[Transforming or Reforming Capitalism - Chapter 3 - Lamb "Towards an Economic Theory of Community Economic Development"]]: [[Staple theory]] is around diversification of an export base. Its [[backward linkages]] measure dependencies in the region - a restaurant purchasing local food and labour. [[Forward linkages]] measure output sold to other regional sectors. [[Demand linkage]] is a measure of how much investment in regional industry produces goods for consumption, investment or government purhcase by the export sector. [[clarify]] [[Leakage]] measures income flows leaving a community, for example through migratory workers, external input purchases, or externally owned enterprises. Linkages are multiplied by domestic production, and [[supply side]] expansion in labour, capital, entrepeneurship, and complementary input (eg technology).
* From [[MW150121 - Transformed by Community Economic Development.pdf]]: Southwest Montréal - from an [[industrial centre]] to poverty. PEP and RESO successful [[intervention]] through [[citizen engagement]]: socio-economic partners - organization must be composed of [[elected | voting | vote | democracy | !democratic | election]] representatives of different sectors of the community (four from business, four from [[community organizations | community based organization | community organization | community based organizations]], two union [[leaders | Leader | lead | leading]], two associate members known for their influence, board grew to include local institutions, residence and elected municipal officials), committees and forums, AGM; Collaboration: supporting key [[community projects]], [[economic]], employment and [[recreational | recreation]] [[tourism | tourist]] plans; [[employment support]] and [[advice]] to [[entrepreneurs | entrepreneur | entrepreneurship]], [[maintained | maintain]] [[industrial zoning]], [[networking]] between businesses, workshops for training, secondary school for adults developed with [[industry | industrial | factory]], unions and [[literacy]] organizations.
* From [[Transforming or Reforming Capitalism - Chapter 3 - Lamb "Towards an Economic Theory of Community Economic Development"]]: Attraction models use incentives and subsidies to industrialists, entrepeneurs or particular socio-economic groups, emphasizing "civic entrepenerialism" to make communities more attractive for entrepenerial success. It may be countered when other communities use similar tactics. CED uses subsidies and incentives, though it does not support changing the makeup of populations, though they may be enhanced.
* From [[MW150113 - CED & Social Economy in Canada - A People's History.pdf]]: 8000 community based organizations in Québec, in old (resource, factory) and new (social, housing, tourism) services. 120000 people, 7% of provincial [[income]], due to history (eg caisses populaires). [[Law]] [[against | vs]] poverty.
* From [[Transforming or Reforming Capitalism - Chapter 3 - Lamb "Towards an Economic Theory of Community Economic Development"]]: Big push theory premises that linkages between industrial projects increase productivity and decreases costs. It does not acknowledge foreign trade, required for larger markets, and has a reliance on large investments. It is relevant to CED through the ideas of planned development and created linkages.
