Brew to Bikes: Portland's Artisan Economy (OpenBook)
Charles Heying is Associate Professor of Urban Studies and Planning at Portland State University in Portland, OR. His research interests include the interrelationship of private, nonprofit, and public sectors in market economies; institutional netword analysis; and elites, power, and social transformation. Heying's interests led him to develop a new project on Portland's artisan economy, depicting the "creative class" and cultural economy of a rising city.
