The Permanence and Perversion of Rurality
Rurality is not what it used to be ; rural is no longer a simple opposite of urban. Since the "rural does exist", the author proposes drawing up a positive conception of rurality that will satisfy researchers in need of a theory and field workers in need of an analysis. To this end. he revises and brings up to date the dichotomy/continuum debate about the town-country relationship ; studies the results of interactions between officials definitions and statistical implications ; and both interprets and assesses the differential indicators of what is urban and rural. Beyond this description, he argues that rurality, a form of a society's relationship with space, is. above all, characterized by a local "inscription" that represents relationships with both the locality and environment.
