520 Defenders of massive multinational chains like Wal-Mart
and Fortune 500 big business argue that, like it or not,
there is no alternative. Their huge scale and
international reach, they claim, make them more efficient
and profitable, better able to deliver value, and an
uncontested boon for the job market. According to the big
boys, locally owned small businesses are simply quaint
remnants of the past, unable to compete in the global
economy. But in, em>The Small-Mart Revolution, Michael
Shuman shows that the benefits these mega-stores and huge
corporations supposedly deliver to communities are
illusory. Crunch the numbers and you'll find that locally
owned businesses turn out to be much more reliable
generators of good jobs, economic growth, tax dollars,
community wealth, charitable contributions, social
stability, and political participation. Unlike their
global competitors, they do this without massive tax
breaks and subsidies that often put local economies in a
permanent hole. Plus, contrary to popular belief, local
businesses are competitive with the multinationals--and
gaining ground every day. Shuman highlights numerous
trends that are making the old bigger is better economies
of scale argument obsolete, and he describes a variety of
innovative strategies these businesses are using to
successfully compete with their over-sized competitors. He
also shows how consumers, investors, and policymakers can
support their own communities by going local. The Small-
Mart Revolution offers a robust alternative to go-go
globalization, one that nurtures the creative capacities
of local businesses and enables communities everywhere to
thrive.
