This title was first published in 2001. Isolated communities,
dependent upon fishing, farming and forestry, which are scattered
around the North Atlantic coast, have shared a disastrous decline
during the last decade. These communities are in the peripheries of
advanced industrial nation-states, such as Canada and
supra-national alliances, such as the European Community, yet
despite this, there are no easy solutions to the development of
these regions. This volume argues that the productive assets of
these regions, and how they can be used to sustain household
incomes, need to be better understood. The assets need to be
converted into products and services and they need to be marketed
profitably. The diminshing flow of young people who leave these
areas to obtain higher education and who do not return must be
turned around and efforts must be concentrated on the creation or
strengthening of economic conditions which satisfy the younger
generation's employment aspirations, consumer requirements and
social needs.

First published in 1999, this volume offers contrasting views from
a variety of academic disciplines, including agriculture,
anthropology, economics, geography, management studies, planning,
and sociology, which focus on the single two-fold problem of how to
understand these issues and what, practically, might be done about
them.
