Abstract

Why did rural areas recover from the great recession much more slowly than metropolitan areas? Due to declining tax revenues and intergovernmental aid, employment in the American local government sector fell substantially after the great recession. Cuts to local public employment were especially large, long-lasting and consequential in rural areas, which have become relatively dependent on public-sector employment and intergovernmental transfers. The public sector is relatively inconsequential in urban America, but in many rural places, a decade after the great recession, the public sector was the slowest category of employment to recover and the leading source of long-term job losses.
大衰退与美国农村的公共部门
为什么农村地区从经济大衰退中复苏的速度比大都市地区慢得多?由于税收收入和政府间援助的减少,美国地方政府部门的就业人数在大衰退后大幅下降。在农村地区,地方公共就业的削减幅度特别大,时间特别长,影响特别大,因为农村地区已相对依赖于公共部门就业和政府间转移。在美国城市,公共部门相对来说无足轻重,但在许多农村地区,大衰退十年后,公共部门是恢复最慢的就业类别,也是长期失业的主要来源。

期刊介绍: The aims of the Journal of Economic Geography are to redefine and reinvigorate the intersection between economics and geography, and to provide a world-class journal in the field. The journal is steered by a distinguished team of Editors and an Editorial Board, drawn equally from the two disciplines. It publishes original academic research and discussion of the highest scholarly standard in the field of ''economic geography'' broadly defined. Submitted papers are refereed, and are evaluated on the basis of their creativity, quality of scholarship, and contribution to advancing understanding of the geographic nature of economic systems and global economic change.
