Reinventing Rural is a collection of original research papers that
examine the ways in which rural people and places are changing in
the context of an urbanizing world. This includes exploring the
role of the environment, the economy, and related issues such as
tourism. While traditionally relying on primary sector work in
agriculture, mining, natural resources, and the like, rural areas
are finding new ways to sustain themselves. This involves a new
emphasis on environmental protection, as one important strategy has
been to capitalize on natural amenities to attract residents and
tourists. Beyond improvements to the economy are general
improvements to the quality-of-life in rural communities.
Consistent with this, the volume focuses on the two cornerstones of
education and health, considering current challenges and offering
ideas for reinventing rural quality-of-life.
