Rural people and communities continue to play important social,
economic, and environmental roles at a time when societies are
rapidly urbanizing. This unrivaled critical introduction, now in a
comprehensively updated second edition, examines the causes and
consequences of major social and economic transformations affecting
rural populations in recent decades, explores policies developed to
ameliorate problems or enhance opportunities, and highlights the
resilience of rural people and communities. In an engaging,
reader-friendly style, the book explores both socio-demographic and
political economic aspects of rural transformation through an
accessible and up-to-date blend of theory and empirical analysis,
with each chapter's discussion grounded in real-life case-study
materials. The new edition has been completely revised throughout,
with new data and literature, and carefully updated to address
emerging issues of direct relevance to rural people and places,
including a whole new chapter on rural politics. Rural People and
Communities in the 21st Century will continue to be the standard
reading of choice for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses
in rural sociology, community sociology, rural and/or population
geography, community development, and population studies.
