Economic Development and health
Salud publica de Mexico, 1991Co-Authors: Romero VelázquezAbstract:The purpose of this work is to examine the relationship between Economic Development and the population's level of health. Consequently, we will establish a comparison between Mexico and other countries in various stages of Development. The interrelationship between Economic Development and health is a complex problem which is little understood, even though it is acknowledged that at increased levels of Economic Development the levels of health of a population will also increase. These considerations can be taken into account when we accept the fact that the health conditions in industrialized countries are generally better than the health conditions in non-industrialized countries. In the case of Mexico, the problems relating to social disparities due to the type of Economic Development are reflected in the country's level of health. Poor health conditions and the deterioration of health services in Mexico, based on international references, are matters that must be resolved by means of a clear political decision accompanied by the appropriate corresponding resources so that the strategies put forth by the National Health Program (1989-1994) can be carried out.

Community Economic Development
International Encyclopedia of the Social & Behavioral Sciences, 2001Co-Authors: Edward J Blakely, R.j. MilanoAbstract:Community Economic Development is a branch of local Economic Development. Community Economic Development is based on two essential notions. First, the community or neighborhood should be the focal point for developing human, social, and physical resources. Second, the indigenous resources, particularly human and organizational, must be the base for any Development activity. In the community, Economic Development the idea is to build new wealth from the basic local resources by repositioning these assets as attractors of capital. This can be accomplished by re-using local building to incubate local artists and entrepreneurs and other related strategies that restore pride and give local people more Economic power to control their own Economic destiny.

Energy-Based Economic Development - Energy-Based Economic Development
Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2011Co-Authors: Sanya Carley, Sara Lawrence, Adrienne Brown, Andrew Nourafshan, E. BenamiAbstract:The fields of Economic Development and energy policy and planning have converged in recent years to form an emerging discipline, which we term "energy-based Economic Development" (EBED). Despite the significant amount of stimulus funds, as well as state and local funding, that are being allocated to EBED initiatives in the United States, the emerging discipline has received scant attention in the energy, policy, and Development literature. The link between energy and Economic Development in the literature is still theoretical, mostly focused on the need for and the potential benefits of EBED, and rarely applied. Furthermore, funding for EBED has outpaced understanding of the discipline, Development of rigorous technical approaches, and meaningful ways to measure impact. Such information would not only help practitioners and policymakers more thoroughly understand the confines of the discipline and shape goals and approaches accordingly, but also help researchers identify, track, and evaluate a variety of activities in the field. With national and international attention focused on the convergence of these fields, researchers and practitioners have a rare opportunity to develop and implement the tools necessary to evaluate and communicate the potentially broader impacts that EBED may hold for society. If ways to leverage and sustain the injection of funds in this discipline are not identified, the opportunity may end before we can achieve either energy policy or Economic Development goals. In an attempt to respond to this need, this analysis explores the connection between energy and Economic Development, beginning with a review of the trends in each field and the goals that each seeks to achieve. On the basis of this information, we define the discipline of EBED, review the existing literature on it, and offer insights and perspectives on its emergence.
