NEIGHBORHOOD DEVELOPMENT IN THE METROPOLITAN ECONOMY: A Policy Review

ABSTRACT: This article introduces policymakers and scholars to several issues in the development of city neighborhoods and their residents. It constructs a literature review around a tree diagram of problems and solutions, arguing that this is a more useful way to organize information than the social science questions that typically interest academics. Following this structured overview, I make the following arguments about space and scale in neighborhood policy: (1) Even if we adopt an individualistic model of economic behavior, we do not necessarily need to choose “people” over “place.” (2) The rationale for the development of neighborhood export jobs remains weak. However, we may be able to identify a “preferred policy scale” for job development and placement connections. This is defined as the scale at which the problem of spatial mismatch is not solved at the expense of broader economic development considerations, and vice versa. The research agenda underlying this simple idea would require more sophisticated and policy-relevant work on commuting patterns and on the interaction behavior and other competitive advantages of firms situated in intra-metropolitan space.

Laboratory and Pilot Scale Recovery of Protein from Mechanically Separated Chicken Residue

Bone residue resulting from mechanical deboning of chicken backs and necks was subjected to alkali extraction followed by acid precipstation to recover food grade protein. A laboratory study of effects of varying die size in the grinding of the starting material, of extraction temperature, and of g-force during centrifugation on composition of process fractions was conducted. Grinding increased ash content, higher temperature reduced fat content, and increasing centrifugal force decreased ash content, of the final products. Effects of grinding, extraction temperature, and centrifugal type were also studied on a pilot scale. Final protein product yield was higher at a 22°C than at a 3–7°C extraction temperature, and less fat was incorporated using a basket centrifuge than with a horizontal decanter centrifuge.
