Abstract
Abstract This commentary examines the meanings and potentials of community in addressing inequality. It reviews the characteristics of place as well as those of social ties that make for creative economic and welfare outcomes. The commentary leans towards innovations in the social economy, community assets, and decentred political capacities, noting the limitations of measures focusing on strengthening local social ties alone. It sees such steps as supplements to governmental initiatives to strengthen local asset markets and welfare provisions, and not as substitutes.
