Bringing together case studies from Germany, Greece, Poland,
Portugal and the UK, this book examines the contribution of
entrepreneurial ventures and new technology in stimulating economic
development in rural locations. It looks at instances of 'good
practice' in terms of both public and private initiatives, and
develops a coherent combination of policy objectives facilitating
the long-term economic development of the countryside. Firstly
analyzing the key causes and effects of economic restructuring
currently affecting Europe's rural areas, the book then explores
the consequences that European integration and 'globalization' have
had and will have in future. It identifies sources of
entrepreneurship and examines their distribution between different
gender, age and other social groupings. The book continues to
evaluate the extent to which the existing institutional, social and
technological environment and infrastructure encourages and
facilitates entrepreneurship.
