Book Description | New York Unbound is a critical examination of the problems and prospects of New York City as it approaches the twenty--first century and a call to arms for a new infusion of energy and creativity in charting its future. As the authors take stock of the citya s remarkable resources, they build the argument that the wellsprings of New Yorka s continuing prosperity reside not in further regulation, taxation, subsidization, and political intransigence, but rather in the release of market forces as the stimulant to further growth and greater prosperity and opportunity. From the creation of better housing to the streamlining of social services, the lessons proffered in New York Unbound will have implications not only for the future of the worlda s greatest city, but for every city attempting to grapple with the challenges of the future. |
