Rural Geographies offers a critical, contemporary introduction to the changing dynamics of rural areas, using geographical concepts to explore the issues affecting the countryside today. The book covers a range of scales, from village communities to the global countryside, and is divided into four sections: rural contexts, changes, contests, and cultures. It draws upon current literature and contemporary examples, with a focus on the Global North, reflecting the tradition of rural geography scholarship. The book is grounded in human geography, illustrating how paradigmatic shifts in the discipline influence rural geography. Aimed at undergraduate students, this text equips readers with the critical skills necessary to analyze and understand rural issues, making it a valuable resource in rural studies.
