Culver Lectureship, the Harriet David Goldberg ’56 Endowment, and the Urban Studies Program of Brown University November 1 at 1 pm until November 2 at 2 pm The Great Recession has had huge repercussions for the fiscal condition of cities around the world. The US is experiencing another wave of municipal bankruptcies, and Rhode Island is not exempt. The impact of the economic crisis, delayed by the stimulus, has slowly worked its way down to the states and in turn, American cities. Vulnerable municipalities – with collapsing industries, high poverty, failed investments, over-indebtedness – tipped into insolvency. Central Falls, Rhode Island emerged from bankruptcy just as Detroit declared its own. This conference will convene scholars and practitioners from Rhode Island and beyond to discuss the causes of and alternatives to municipal bankruptcy under conditions of economic austerity.
