Terry Van Allen's analyses draw some important, and surprising, conclusions from the data derived from the 1989 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development national survey of 60 EZs and their surrounding communities in 14 states. Providing a thorough historical background covering state and federal programs in Great Britain as well as in the United States, and an overview of the literature and economic theories on employment, Terry Van Allen's study offers major insights on the implication of Enterprise Zones policy as well as crucial policy recommendations for greater efficiency and success.
