Synopsis

Rural areas of the world are going through a period of profound change. Some are developing rapidly while others are faced with decreases in population. Agricultural policy concerns only a small proportion of rural dwellers and economies. Recognition that the rural world plays an important role in the vital societal balance between town and country is growing. This report provides a reference guide through the complexities of rural development, illustrated by examples from OECD countries. The problems and potentials of rural areas are analyzed and a policy framework for development objectives is suggested.
