Synopsis
This integrated collection of essays surveys the key environmental issues in rural areas in the developed world, using case study material from the UK, USA and Sweden. From the perspectives of geography, sociology, economics, politics and planning, leading researchers examine the environmental implications of industrial framing, counter urbanization, the global commons and conflict resolutions in land use. The book's aim is to demonstrate how planning regimes have to be modified to take account of environmental imperatives and to indicate how this may be done. Aimed particularly at academics, students and researchers in these fields, the book also seeks to serve as a reference for practising planning professionals.
