This title was first published in 2000: Improved communication
links between urban and rural areas and an increase in property
prices in urban regions have made commuting an attractive option
for European town and city dwellers eager to 'escape' urban living.
This has lead to a proliferation of second homes in certain remote
or deep rural areas, and this trend is compounding problems that
are already affecting the indigenous populations in these areas -
such as socio-economic decline, agricultural depression, a lack of
services, and unaffordable house prices. Consequently, many
politicians in European Member States are calling for the
introduction of housing and planning laws to control the
proliferation of second home ownership. This book addresses the
origins of second home growth, the nature of ownership and demand,
the economic costs and benefits and the environmental and social
impacts of second homes. It also considers policy and practical
responses at European, UK and local levels. The book will be
invaluable reading for students and policy analysts in the fields
of rural geography, planning, politics, housing studies and
cultural studies.
