This book explores issues of ethnicity, identity and racialised
exclusion in rural Britain, in depth and for the first time. It
questions what the countryside 'is', problematises who is seen as
belonging to rural spaces, and argues for the recognition of a
rural multiculture. The book brings together the latest and most
extensive research findings to provide an authoritative account of
current theory, policy and practice. Using interdisciplinary
frameworks and new empirical data, the book provides a critical and
comprehensive account of the shifting, contested connections
between rurality, national identity and ethnicity; discusses the
relationships between ethnicity, exclusion, policy, practice and
research in a range of rural settings - from the experiences of
gypsy traveller children in schools to attempts to encourage black
and minority ethnic visitors to National Parks and contributes
towards establishing the 'rural-ethnicity-nation' relationship as a
key consideration on political and policy agendas. "The new
countryside?" is essential reading for students, academics and
researchers in a wide range of disciplines including: sociology;
geography; social policy; and cultural, rural and environment
studies. It will also be an invaluable resource for practitioners
and policy makers across a wide range of sectors and services.
