摘要：The Federal Reserve System’s 2007 Community
Development Research Conference,
“Financing Community Development:
Learning from the Past, Looking to the
Future,” was held in Washington, D.C., on March 29-30,
2007. This conference was the fifth in a biennial series
that the Federal Reserve System established in 1999.
The responsibility for organizing the conference program
rotates among the Federal Reserve Banks. The staffs of
the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia’s Community
Affairs Department and Research Department took the
lead in organizing the 2007 program. The intention of
the conference series is to encourage the application
of rigorous economic analysis to issues related to
community development because without such state-ofthe-
art research, policymakers cannot hope to devise
effective economic development policies and programs.
In this article, Loretta Mester provides a summary of the
conference.
