This book focuses on the transformation of rural places, peoples,
and land endemic to the contemporary manifestations of
globalization. Migration, global economic restructuring, and
climate change are rapidly transforming rural places across the
globe. Yet, global attention characteristically focuses on urban
social and economic issues, neglecting the continued roles of rural
people and places. Organized around the three core themes of
demographic change, rural-urban partnerships and innovations, and
landscape change, the case studies included in this volume
represent both the Global North and Global South and underscore the
complexity and multi-scalar nature of these contemporary challenges
in rural development, planning, and sustainability. This book would
be valuable supplementary reading for both students and
professionals in the fields of rural land management and rural
planning.
