Regional Resilience, Economy and Society

- Globalising Rural Places

Bag om Regional Resilience, Economy and Society

There has been a great deal of restructuring of rural places and communities under globalisation, highlighting the interaction of local and global actors to produce new hybrid socio-economic relations. Recent research highlights the heterogeneity of globalisation in which rural places are different to each other, but also different to how they were in the past. Bringing together an interdisciplinary team of academics, and comparative case studies from Europe (West and East) and Asia, this book explores and discusses opportunities and challenges associated with globalising rural places, and identifies possibilities for policy and practical intervention by rural development actors. Special attention is paid to multi-scalar processes through which rural places are reshaped through globalisation. Taking a geographical approach, the book produces new critical work on the interdependence between globalisation and rural spaces. It is organised into five sections: Part I focuses on ΓÇÖGlobal-Rural LinkagesΓÇÖ showing the multifaceted interrelation between actors at different geographical scale and demonstrating that globalisation is not only external to rural spaces. Part II on ΓÇÖRural Entrepreneurship and Labour MarketsΓÇÖ explores the potential of business start-ups in rural spaces which are not only necessity driven. Part III ΓÇÖRural Innovation and LearningΓÇÖ shows that rural places are also places for innovation and learning. Part IV on ΓÇÖRural Policies and GovernanceΓÇÖ argues that regional policies for rural places should promote side activities to maintain social capital and that regional policy should take a more integrative perspective between urban and rural spaces in order to explore complementary development paths. The concluding chapter ΓÇÖNew Approaches to Rural SpacesΓÇÖ discusses new approaches to globalising rural places in relation to the preceding chapters published in this book.
