Today “rural diversification” is high on the agenda in rural development. This article analyses rural diversification under
conditions of post-socialist economic transition using case areas in Latvia and Estonia. The study shows that transition from
centrally planned economy to market economy has had an enormous impact in the rural areas. Agricultural production and employment
has decreased dramatically and rural unemployment is high. The conditions for rural diversification the first years after
independence depended a lot on the local presence of non-farm activities before the split up of collective farming, in both
production facilities but also in the skills and relations people had. Since independence, markets for traditional rural services
and products have decreased. The extent to which local businesses find markets outside the local area and people have been
able to integrate into the new labour market of service and construction jobs often in urban areas are essential for the diversification
of the rural economy. Most rural inhabitants only have skills in large-scale agriculture and limited contacts to outside the
local area which makes exploiting new opportunities difficult. The local capacity for withholding, developing and inducing
new activities is weak. The challenge for rural development policy is to extend the possibilities of the rural inhabitants
to exploit new opportunities. 相似文献

Traditional grain storage used to be an effective mechanism to combat famine in the rural areas of W Sudan. Of late, this
mechanism has failed to function and a severe famine took place in 1984–1985. This paper endeavours to highlight this crisis,
show the traditional methods of grain storage and point out to ways of retrieving grain storage systems to start again on
a less vulnerable basis. An assessment of grain storage requirements under the new conditions where both market and subsistence
economy are effective in rural areas is made for the different ecological zones of W Sudan. 相似文献

Pakistan, being an agro-based economy, is considered most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. The country is susceptible to many natural catastrophes and climate-induced events due to intra-geographical and intra-topographical disparities. This paper is an attempt to measure the relative vulnerability of diverse topographies in rural areas of Pakistan using vulnerability and capacity index tool. The results are based on the findings of primary survey data (350 households from 17 rural communities). Accordingly, and as expected, the key relative differences are attributed to topographical conditions besides the basic quandary of rural areas of Pakistan. The topographical attributes are largely linked to the nature of hazards and relative impacts. While the other aspects of vulnerability in all topographies stem out of inappropriate infrastructure, low education, and institutional factors. The absence of multi-sectoral and productive economic opportunities also poses an adverse impact on the resilience of households in rural areas. The women and households headed by females are found relatively more vulnerable than male-headed households.

Restructuring the Polish countryside is a complex and urgent task. Adapting agriculture for EU entry will mean a considerable
reduction in employment and rural diversification is needed because other sectors of the national economy will not be able
to absorb all the displaced people if they arrive in the towns. However, providing non-agricultural employment in rural areas
depends to a large extent on the technical infrastructure available: running water, sewerage systems, gas supply and telecommunications.
The paper deals with voivodeships in southern and southwestern Poland (formerly Galicia) and shows that while much progress
has been made since the end of the communist period, the inherited inequalities are being perpetuated and in some cases increased.
However, even where the infrastructure is satisfactory, private business does not develop at a uniform rate and action is
needed to stimulate communities in remoter rural areas, particularly in the eastern part of the study region.

Agriculture has always been very important for the Bulgarian economy, but during the socialist period there was considerable
progress made in the diversification of employment opportunities in rural areas. While many people commuted to non-agricultural
jobs in the townships (and there was a large permanent transfer from rural to urban areas), there were additional opportunities
in small factories and local services in the villages themselves. The transition has seen these opportunities much reduced,
at precisely the time when full-time paid work in agriculture has declined due to market restructuring while complex problems
have emerged associated with liquidating the state-run cooperatives and establishing a viable alternative. The paper discusses
the general issues and presents a case study from the north-central part of the country. The rebuilding of a cooperative farming
system (along with other forms of consolidation) is a positive trend which could increase spending power in the villages and
help in the growth of employment in rural industries and services.

Livestock are of vital importance in the rural economy of Pakistan. However, there are marked regional variations in the emphasis placed on the different livestock enterprises. Recognition of these variations is the basic objective of this study. From the standpoint of cattle breeding, the ranking of the animals permits an understanding of the livestock holders' preferences for different types of animals to raise in different areas. To focus on the regional variations in the livestock patterns in Pakistan, the livestock combination areas have been established. Any program which may be introduced for the improvement of animal industry in Pakistan should take cognizance of such regionalization. 相似文献

The issue of the quality of life of rural South Africans has become a key focus of attention of the national and provincial
governments in postapartheid South Africa. This focus stems from legislation that enshrines concurrent responsibility for
rural development to both these spheres of government. However, post-1995 legislation including the introduction of wall-to-wall
municipal authorities and the subsequent initiatives by municipalities to assume responsibility for service delivery in their
areas have infused considerable complexity into the development landscape at the local level. Within this context and against
the background of different perspectives and strategies for rural development, this paper examines, in a case study of the
Limehill Complex within the Ndaka Municipality in KwaZulu-Natal, the specific development problems that the `deep' rural communities
experience. The paper then discusses strategic interventions that the Ndaka Municipality, in conjunction with other role players
and the different spheres of government, needs to consider for implementation in order to regenerate the rural economy of
the Limehill Complex and assist in the alleviation of widespread poverty in the area.

In Nigeria, increasing evidence indicates a deteriorating man-land relationship. Negative changes in landscape quality, lowering both the productivity and aesthetic quality of the natural environment, may have serious effects on the nation's economy. In rural areas, declining soil fertility and soil erosion threaten the ability to produce sufficient food. In urban areas, competition for productive agricultural land has led to its conversion to urban uses. Earth materials required for urban development have been obtained by widespread landscape destruction. Expansion of urban areas into sensitive valley, marsh, and lagoon environments has led to an increased frequency of urban floods and flood damage. A developing conservation ethic must be accompanied by a practicable framework for land use control. 相似文献

Economic reform in post-Soviet Russia has proceeded unevenly, resulting in broad variation between rural and urban areas.
In the case study presented here, I examine how Communism's `economy of favors' has been transformed into a localized quasi-capitalist
economy, which predominantly operates outside the national market economy. Using data from two villages in Tunkinskij Raion
of the Buriat Republic in Russia, I look at how people at a micro-sociological level have adapted to current economic conditions.
In particular I examine the relationships between informal networks and the ability to intensify agricultural production on
household plots, to gain access to a variety of forest resources, and to find seasonal, part-time, or one-time work outside
the household and the formal labor market.

The complex mobilities of homeless people in rural England 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
Paul Cloke 《Geoforum》2003,34(1):21-35
This paper explores the interconnected issues of mobility, power and meaning in the context of rural homelessness. It explores two common assumptions relating to these interconnections: that rural homeless people move to cities thereby transposing homelessness into an urban problem; and that mobility is deeply implicated in the mapping of moral codes in rural areas. Drawing on a range of interviews with homeless people, and workers with homelessness agencies in the rural areas of Gloucestershire and Somerset, the paper discusses four types of movement: ‘local’ homeless people moving out of rural areas; ‘local’ homeless people moving within rural areas; homeless ‘incomers’ moving to rural areas; and itinerant/transient homeless people moving through rural areas. The complex mobilities of rural homeless people influence common ideas about where homelessness occurs and how it is experienced. These mobilities also affect how homelessness is ‘made known’ in rural areas, as different elements of the mobility of homeless people are discursively scattered amongst identity labels and policy arenas other than homelessness. Finally, homeless mobilities problematise the adequacy and nature of policy responses to homelessness in rural areas. 相似文献

Access to new information and communication technologies is widely viewed as a prerequisite for participation in the global economy, so that inequalities in such access have become a significant policy concern. Rural areas are especially underserved in terms of internet providers, and this is true in both developed and less developed economies. This article focuses on access to the internet within farming operations in the US as an important aspect of understanding the digital divide within rural areas. Using county level data from the 2007 US Census of Agriculture and multivariate regression analysis, our study examines the statistical relationship between farm internet access and a set of explanatory factors which include demographic characteristics of operators, economic characteristics of farms, and geographic location (region and metropolitan status) of the farm. Further, it seeks to understand whether access to the internet can be socially and locationally differentiated from access to high speed internet. Our findings indicate that existing social divides are replicated in terms of the digital divide, so that social inequalities are potentially a more pressing problem than infrastructural gaps in terms of rural access to the internet in the US. 相似文献

家庭联产承包责任制实现了土地所有权和使用权的初步分离,使农民获得了相对独立的承包经营权,极大地调动了农民的生产积极性。然而,随着农村经济社会的发展,人地矛盾日益激化,土地的边际生产力已出现明显的递减趋势,土地小规模家庭经营,农业的比较利益大大下降;同时,农村的剩余劳动力涌向经济较发达的大中城市,城市化进程骤然加剧等,使得土地家庭承包经营这一土地制度逐渐显露出自身的缺陷。在稳定农村土地承包关系的前提下,促进农村土地流转,可以在一定程度上发挥土地的规模效益,促进农村经济社会的健康持续发展。 相似文献

There are two antagonistic, but equally influential traditions in the study of the nexus between resource use and violent conflict. One works through a Malthusian frame linking resource scarcity with violence, the other school of thought establishes a nexus between resource abundance and the incentives to use violence for rent monopolisation in a political economy of war or markets of violence. The tacit essentialism inherent in both schools of thought has increasingly come under critical scrutiny by geographers and anthropologists. To escape such essentialism requires a more detailed study of the dynamism of the political economy of (civil) war and its spatial dynamics, the political geographies of violence. In this paper, we study endowments and entitlements of people depending on common-pool or open-access resources in war-affected areas of Sri Lanka. Rural spaces in the war-affected areas became both a strategic retreat for fighters and an important common-pool resource on which a large part of the rural populace depended for their survival. Our research illustrates how the political geographies of war affect access regimes and entitlements to common-pool resources and thereby confine the livelihood opportunities of resource users. These dynamics of the political economy of war cross different scales and go beyond simple place-based struggles, for they are rooted in broader spatial dynamics of warfare creating place-space tensions in the sense that spatial dynamics of military control impinge changing access regimes upon specific places. 相似文献

四川盆地紫色土丘陵区水土流失及防治对策 总被引：8，自引：0，他引：8
四川盆地丘陵区是该省水土流失最严重的地区。也是该地区生态环境恶化、自然灾害频繁、农村经济落后、人民生活贫穷的重要原因。文章根据四川盆地丘陵区水土流失面积大、强度高的特征及其致害因素，探讨了水土流失原因。水土流失破坏生态环境及耕地资源，淤积江河湖库，加剧水旱洪涝灾害，造成土壤肥力下降，土壤蓄水抗旱能力降低。由此提出了一些相应的防治措施——加强生态环境建设，整治坡面水系，搞好农田基本建设，强化人口／管理等，从而使水土流失得到控制，生态环境得到改善。加强对紫色砂页岩丘陵区的治理，合理开发利用土地，提高土地利用率和生产率，不仅利于四川盆地丘陵区的经济发展，而且对改善长江上游乃至整个长江流域的生态环境也具有重大的现实意义。 相似文献
