Mercatus Center Report on Local Knowledge in New Orleans

The Mercatus Center at George Mason University continues its ongoing research into emergent patterns of self-organization with the release of this report: Caring Communities: The Role of Nonprofits in Rebuilding the Gulf Coast. From the report: The idea of social entrepreneurship—innovation in the philanthropic sector to fill in the gaps left by both the market sector and the state sector—has become a hot topic in the last decade. People increasingly wonder how nonprofit enterprises and social entrepreneurs can effectively mimic the successes of the market economy in increasing human welfare, choice, and dignity without either the profit-loss system of markets or the democratic and constitutional checks of the public sector

The site has profiles of a number of New Orleanians incubating different approaches to city-building and links to their ongoing research post-2005.
