“…This comparative lack of attention has created a gap in the understanding of economic processes at the bottom of the urban hierarchy despite their critical, and often extraordinary, economic roles (see Bryson et al, 2021a). This gap is particularly significant as it limits the ability to analyze the effectiveness of place-based economic development policies in the locations where they often have the greatest impact (Palavicini Corona, 2021). Small urban areas stand in contrast to large metropolitan areas, which are generally dominated by command-and-control functions; high-order service activities; and/or destinations for the arts, medicine, and entertainment (Sassen, 2001;Robinson, 2002Robinson, , 2008.…”

After years of relative neglect, renewed attention has been paid to smaller, “ordinary” cities. The distinctiveness of these cities is often found in their economic development paths, which, can encompass their roles in international trade. Many locations have included exports as part of their economic growth strategies, yet the effectiveness of export strategies varies by location. This is in addition to varying components of exports for these cities, including the destination geographies and reliance on particular markets. In order to contribute to the growing literature on ordinary cities, this paper examines the export performance of smaller metropolitan areas across the southern United States. In recent decades, the South has been a region marked by robust economic performance, both overall and in terms of exporting; the region’s smaller cities are an especially notable case in terms of export performance and structure. While goods-related exports from the smaller cities across this region have tended to trend upward, export performance has been spatially uneven, with export markets and key export industries varying widely. The article concludes with an exploration and discussion of possible export trajectories for these urban areas in the post-pandemic and potentially, post-globalization, environments, particularly in terms of development-related outcomes.

Newly formed territorial communities acquire a real subjectivity in the processes of the management of territorial development: they become responsible for a significant share of day-to-day economic activities within their sphere of responsibility, especially in territories with a predominantly rural population. This article aimed to study the changing role of local self-government in ensuring the economic development of the low-urbanized territory, determining public opinion and expectations of residents from local governments in the new conditions. A public opinion poll of residents living in selected local communities was conducted. This article identified the objective factors of the level and pace of newly formed territorial communities’ development in Ukraine. It has been proved that the decentralization of power changes the role of local government and the expectations of residents from it and their assessments of the situation at the local level.
