Abstract
  • Dusenbury's history of the Coastal Plains Regional Commission highlights the contributions made by this federally-funded economic development agency as well as traces the steps to its federally-ordered abolition. Her thorough description of the agency's demise dismisses the possibility of drawing the most obvious, but inaccurate, conclusion — that regional economic development planning is ineffective. Rather, this agency's loss of commitment to planning and preoccupation with survival account for its deserved end.
