Table of ContentsReviews'A broad range of social, economic and political issues are dealt with...Equally impressive is the diversity of countries from which case studies are drawn...Despite this diversity of topics and case studies, the book forms a reasonably cohesive collection and adds to our understanding of the meanings attaching to the rural as we enter the twenty-first century. This is greatly facilitated by an excellent editors' introduction synthesising the contributions. The various chapters display a useful blend of empirical and theoretical material as well as employing a wide variety of research methods.' Geography 'The in-depth study of the different themes makes it very valuable, not only for rural sociologists but also to agronomists, rural policy-makers and agricultural marketeers.'
