Description

Explore the complex relationship between economic shifts and gambling commerce in this academic study from Routledge. As governments expand casino availability to offset the decline of manufacturing, this book investigates the actual impact of these developments on host communities. Through a detailed case study of Windsor, Ontario - once Canada's automotive capital - the author examines whether casino developments truly serve the public good or if they fail to provide the promised economic growth. This text provides a necessary look at how regions attempt to transition their economies through gambling industries. It is an essential resource for those studying urban sociology and the socioeconomic consequences of deindustrialization.

Provides a detailed case study focusing on Windsor, Ontario, a former automotive hub.

Examines the arguments used to justify casino developments as a public good.
