This thought-provoking book questions the framework of the Horizon
2020 strategy and the policies of smart development. It aims to
answer the following question: Is there any possibility for a
policy of smart development and smart specialization in rural and
peri-urban areas? Based on detailed analytical studies, empirical
and econometric methods, as well as various European case studies,
several conclusions are drawn. Smart development policies are well
adapted to the developed or intermediate regions containing at the
same time rural and urban areas, but do not really function for the
more rural or more peripheral regions. The development policies of
rural areas must be adapted to their particular characteristics, to
the structure of their economies (agriculture, small firms), as
well as in their diversity (distant regions, intermediate regions,
rural areas near the urban areas). It appears interesting to
exploit natural and cultural amenities, to develop the
multifunctional character of the agriculture, to promote
territorial innovation under all its forms, to favor the synergies
between the various uses of land and space, and to develop the
knowledge on the ecological, socioeconomic processes, as well as on
the mechanisms of territorial governance. These results are very
important because they question the validity of the H2020 policy
and the smart development and smart specialization policies and
their applicability to the whole European area, and not only for
the most urban and rich areas. It will be valuable reading for
students, researchers and policy-makers in regional development,
rural studies, spatial planning and economic geography.
