Rural Europe

by Keith Hoggart, Richard Black, Henry Buller

An authoritative new study that examines the interactions at both the national and international levels of the economic, political and social changes that are transforming the rural regions of Europe. Covers issues of socioeconomic standing and cultural identity, followed by explorations of transnational policy formulation and the character of the transformations that have occurred and continue to occur within the rural areas of the European community. Also identifies the cross-national trends that have arisen out of the ranges of socioeconomic status and opportunities for development within a Europe still characterized by inequality rather than integration.
