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.

Eine kompakte und funktional durchmischte Stadt wird als urbanes Modell wieder angestrebt und das Leitbild Stadt der kurzen Wege" ist ein Ausdruck dieses Ansatzes. Die Motivation fur die Entwicklung des Leitbildes hangt eng mit Raumstrukturen, die in der Suburbanisierungsphase entstanden sind, und ihren Effekten (z.B. Flachenverbrauch, Anstieg von Verkehrs- und Umweltbelastungen) zusammen. Die Beitrage untersuchen Alltagsmobilitat in den Bereichen Einkaufen, Freizeit, Wohnumfeld und Wohnmobilitat in unterschiedlichen Quartierstypen Berlins. Auf der Basis umfangreicher quantitativer und qualitativer Befragungen wird untersucht, inwiefern das Mobilitatsverhalten der Bewohner mit dem Planungsleitbild einer Stadt der kurzen Wege konform geht."
Die zunehmende Bedeutung von Informationsflussen fur die Wertschopfung geht einher mit einer wachsenden Koharenz der Wertschopfungsketten. Kenntnisse daruber sind fur die strategische Planung in der Politik wie in Unternehmen gleichermassen wichtig. Die Beitrage des Buchs untersuchen die Auswirkungen von Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien auf Guter- und Informationsflusse zwischen Herstellern und Endverbrauchern. Dazu werden Guter- und Informationsflusse entlang von Produktions- und Distributionsprozessen dargestellt und analysiert."
