Analysing the ongoing changes and dynamics in rural development
from a functional perspective through a series of case studies from
the global north and south, this volume deepens our understanding
of the importance of new functional and multifunctional approaches
in policy, practice and theory. In rural areas of industrialized
societies, food production as a basis for growth and employment has
been declining for many decades. In the Global South, on the other
hand, food production is still often the most important factor for
socio-economic development. However, rural areas both in the
industrialized north and in the global south are facing new
challenges which lead to significant changes and threats to their
development. New forms of food production, but also new functional
(e.g. housing or business parks) and often multifunctional
approaches are being discussed and practiced yet it remains unclear
the extent to which these result in better or more sustainable
development of rural areas.
