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.
