| Summary |
"Incredibly timely. Hansen is a leading scholar in the state politics field who has compiled an impressive body of work dealing with the political causes and consequences of declining wages."?Paul Brace, Clarence L. Carter Professor, Baker Institute for Public Policy, Rice University "An excellent book and a fine addition to the literature on economic development policy and American federalism.
