Economic Expectation In Detroit Case Study

In his essay Is Detroit Dead?, Peter Eisinger investigates the slow decay and degradation of the city of Detriot, and argue that it is no longer a living city. He uses the analogy of a patient who is diagnosed with a terminal disease to help prove his point. Eisinger looks at the lack of self-governance, inefficient and eroding public services, and the shallow indigenous labour pool in Detroit, to sustain his argument that Detroit is on the cusp of death. As well, he uses other literature that points out the mass migration of Detroiters that started in the 1950s, and the rapid decline of the auto industry. Eisinger also discusses limitations in finding numerical data for the exact amount of debt Detroit has and with the proportion of Detroiters

Detroit, Michigan grew up around the automobile industry. At its peak, Detroit was the fifth-largest city in the United States, becoming the home to over 1.8 million people by 1950 (Davey, Monica 2013). The prolific population was due greatly to the success of the auto industry in the city. At that time, Detroit was flying high, its name coined “The Motor City” (americaslibrary.gov), and automobiles greatly impacted commercialization. From transporting goods to hastening production, to selling parts, to manufacturing and selling new automobiles, the auto industry completely transformed Detroit. Things seemed

In 2009 the American auto industry was in a dire economic state. Chrysler was in Chapter 11, GM was on the brink of bankruptcy, and Ford’s future was at best uncertain. The demise of the U.S. auto industry would have a devastating impact on our national economy and specifically the economies of Michigan and Ohio.

This paper explores the economic restructuring and revitalization of Detroit Michigan post World War II until today. The purpose of this research paper is to show the history of Detroit’s auto and manufacturing industry, in what ways it has changed in recent years, and how it has helped define the economy of Detroit and damaged it. This paper suggests that the deindustrialization of plants and industries and the depopulation of whites to the Suburbs have triggered the economic downfall of the Motor City. Some social issues such as race discrimination and segregation that might have led to the riots of 1943, and 1967, and the migration of African Americans to Northern States in search of employments will be discussed as well.

I chose to compare the NFL crisis regarding the Ray Rice domestic abuse. The major difference with the NFL crisis was the fact it was created by a single action versus a poor corporate decision. My crisis stemmed from poor planning which resulted in a failed campaign. However, if one measures failure based solely upon financial gain or loss we can clearly see that no negative outcome transpired as a result of this failure.

1.Consider the following entry game.  Here, firm B is an existing firm in the market, and firm A is a potential entrant.  Firm A must decide whether to enter the market (play "enter") or stay out of the market (play "not enter").  If firm A decides to enter the market, firm B must decide whether to engage in a price war (play "hard"), or not (play "soft").  By playing "hard", firm B ensures that firm A makes a loss of $1 million, but firm B only makes $1 million in profits.  On the other hand, if firm B plays "soft", the new entrant takes half of the market, and each firm earns profits of $5 million.  If firm A stays out, it earns zero while firm B earns $10 million. Which of the following are Nash equilibrium strategies?

Both teams are highly competitive in their respective sports, and offer fantastic games and events for Detroit fans and opposing team tourists as well. While looking to increase migration to the city, The District Detroit also wants to increase tourism. Fans from all around the nation are always looking for opportunities to support their team on the road. Not only do they get to see their city’s team in action, but they get to take a mini trip to a different city and explore and experience all that the host city has to offer. The District Detroit is going be a prime destination for fans all around the nation. Detroit will be the only city nationally to have all four major professional sports teams in the downtown area. With restaurants, shopping, bars, hotels, and nightlife the new District has plenty to offer for fan interactions and events. For these tourists to come, Detroit needs to advertise and market this District to the nation to present the image of the complete experience the District has to offer. Not only will tourists be able to see their team play, but the district will offer full engagement and opportunities outside of the arenas. This increased tourism has the potential to increase migration by showing all the offerings the District Detroit will

In 1910 Detroit was the ninth largest city in the United States, housing the auto industry and producing metal crafts, railcars, stove works, paints, iron, brass, and copper. After World War 2 the population increased to 1,849,568 forcing a city expansion of 77.9 square miles, the city’s economy account for nearly 1/6th of the nation’s income, with the industrial sector employing an estimated 310,000 workers alone.

The City of Detroit, Michigan filed for Chapter 9 Bankruptcy in July 2013, becoming the largest U.S. municipality to do so in U.S. history (Stone et al 2015). The state of Michigan does not allow a municipality to file for Chapter 9 of bankruptcy “until after the state has first intervened and appointed an emergency manager” (Skeel 2013, p.1065). In terms of the financial history of Detroit, “whereas some municipal bankruptcies can be traced to one primary cause, the factors that led Detroit’s bankruptcy are multiple and cumulative”( Stone et al 2015, p.91). Despite this, the cause for implementing a fiscal control board like the one in Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico is the same for Detroit: the city lost the ability to meet

Requiem for Detroit? is a historical documentary, released in 2010 and directed by Julien Temple, about the decline and collapse of Detroit, one of America’s largest cities. It chronicles Detroit’s journey through its success in the automobile industry all the way through its urban decay and industrial collapse to the present day. As the film draws a close, Temple also suggests some ways forward for Detroit. He presents possibilities and clearly shows which he thinks is most likely through his use of interviews with subjects and visual representations of these offered opinions. The intended reading that Temple offers viewers is a complex one, with many anti-consumerist and anti-corporate ideas and leanings. Despite the ‘doom-laden’ feel of much of the text, Temple paints optimism for the potential for a progressive and productive future for Detroit. Throughout the documentary he clearly expresses this intended reading through effective use of motifs, shown by visual and sound techniques, music and interviews with both privileged and non-privileged characters.

In order to help explain the demise of this once great city and the deviant culture of todays youth in Detroit, I will be using a documentary that I came across on YouTube entitled, Detroit Fratricide by Seven the General.

Detroit, many call it the worst place in America, other detroiters like myself call it home. It takes a strong person to be able to withstand all the things going on around you. For those who know it, it’s a place that has many memories that can not be erased, things that most citizens have no recollection of, and secrets the government will never release to the public. Detroit’s truths are only comprehended by a few. The drugs, murder, rape, hospital abuse, and even corruption within the government. Many who are unfortunate enough to bear the weight of Detroit’s burdens have often told stories about their experiences. This, however, is not a review of all those stories but a personal terror.

Millions of people move around The United States each year. A total of, “7,628,000 moved to a different state” (Avrick). Of those seven point six million, thousands move to the state of Michigan.
