Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a framework is presented to place entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial activity into the context of decision-taking generally in the rural environment, and second, of the broader enabling environment, arguing that constraints originating in this broader environment are often necessary, but they may have unforeseen side-effects in discouraging innovation.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a method is developed for predicting participation in voluntary land diversion schemes based on two main variables: the extent to which farmers are, by inclination and circumstance, favourably disposed to a scheme; and the particular scheme makes it attractive for farmers to put in at least some land.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a critical evaluation of the limits of the idea of counterurbanisation from a socio-geographical viewpoint is presented, and its potential contribution to the discussion going on around some of the new so-called post-industrial, post-Fordist or post-modern, socioeconomic formations.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: There has recently been renewed interest in the British rural community, both as a focus for analysis and as a method of examining structure and organisation in rural zones as discussed by the authors, and the importance of these recent studies is assessed through examining the contributions of the multi-various approaches to the rural community undertaken since the Second World War.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine the process by which real estate developers reproduce and elaborate rural images of urban places, and conclude that the process of realestate developers appropriate and commodity the meanings of places and foster the hegemonic, but ever changing, nature of rurality in anti-urbanism.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The competition between agriculture and the environment has intensified in the last few decades and this period has been associated with increased concern about environmental despoliation as discussed by the authors, and it is unsafe to expect that a rolling back of agricultural support will automatically restore an environmentally preferred agriculture.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a history of the theme of environmentally sustainable development and provide evidence of its continued theoretical and practical significance in agri-food systems from the perspectives of stewardship, food sufficiency and community.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, a framework for the spatial population development in the context of a multi-level urban and regional system, which expresses, firstly, a dialectical interrelationship between the concentration and deconcentration processes at various regional levels and, secondly, the demographic and socio-economic differentiation involved in it, is proposed.

TL;DR: It is confirmed that rural women remain a seriously underutilized labor resource in the US and continue to suffer substantially higher levels of economic underemployment than urban women and rural men.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The authors examined the state-led expansion of New Zealand's livestock industries between 1960 and 1984 from a political economy perspective, identifying the mixture of economic, ideological and political-administrative features that distinguished New Zealand society at the time and sketching the evolution of the agricultural policy framework under the structural conditions.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the concept of privatisation in its new right context and offer an initial analysis of the actual and potential impacts of privatization in rural areas using the example of policies in Thatcher's Britain.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that "bargaining" best describes planning processes in mixed economies, and suggest a number of potentially fruitful avenues for research in the area of bargaining.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors set out a theoretical framework by means of which contemporary social change in rural localities may be analysed, and paid particular attention to the role of the state in shaping the pattern of social reorganisation characteristic of contemporary rural change.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical assessment of option value and the willingness to pay for wildlife conservation at three SSSIs was undertaken by an expressed preference or contingent valuation survey, and the results differ from revealed preference estimates.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The relationship between the process of industrialization and the particular response represented by marketing board arrangements is explored in this article, where the underlying premise is a causal relationship, but one complicated by the changing goals of, and relationships between, the participants.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In the New Zealand government's indicative planning of national development in the 1960s and 1970s the nation's livestock industries (sheep/beef and dairying) were expected to make a major contribution to foreign exchange earnings.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used point-score analysis as the basic measuring technique for land ownership values, using five villages from a range of agroeconomic zones in Cyprus, and explored and related to socio-personal variables and attitudes towards the economic and social impact of the land consolidation policy.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The change in power relations between politicians, planners and settlers has resulted in the emergence of new settlement patterns, which include the industrial village, the yishuv kehillati (community settlement) and the private settlement as discussed by the authors.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide theoretical and empirical evidence that the external links of New Zealand food and fibre production are rapidly and radically changing and make a case that the restructuring of agro-commodity chains is now being driven by consumption rather than production pressures.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an account of the history of rural land planning in New York State, an area where much planning occurred that was both original and innovative, focusing on how plans viewed the changing spatial form of the state, and the issue of which level of government should hold primary control for planning.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a series of ambitious development measures for selected rural areas in Canada were described. But, the efforts may not have been as successful as originally envisaged, and the success of these efforts was evaluated.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The timing of the demographic changes and the fundamental societal forces which have influenced them suggest that government policy has played a minor part in the evolution of France's population.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The 1986-1990 Plan for Rural Development in Jordan as discussed by the authors is a regional planning system aimed in part at rural development, which coordinates national, provincial, sub-regional and local planning.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the changing nature of state intervention, state involvement under alternative systems of governance, recent political economy theory in respect to family farms and corporations, and new imperatives for state involvement prescribed according to the concept of sustainability.
