George W. McCarthy

April 2015, English

When one looks at fiscally distressed cities, it is easy to conclude that insolvency is simply a product of ineffective management, a lack of financial discipline, or the incompetence or corruption of local government.

Nuevas anclas para fondear

Educación y medicina con las comunidades

Beth Dever, Omar Blaik, George Smith, and George W. McCarthy

February 2015, Spanish

A las grandes instituciones, como universidades, hospitales y organizaciones sin fines de lucro, se les suele llamar “anclas”, debido a su permanencia y a los lazos estabilizadores que generan, tanto en lo físico como en lo social, con las comunidades circundantes.

Daphne A. Kenyon and Andrew Reschovsky
