rural geography
Définition
- Rural geography is the study of place-based economies and cultures characterized by (a) low settlement densities, low levels of connectivity, and hence a certain degree of isolation; (b) livelihoods that are predominantly agricultural or organized around other forms of direct dependence on natural resources and landscapes; and (c) attachments to long-standing traditions that often make them emblematic of cultural differences. Geographic meanings of the rural have been approached through contrasting urban and rural places within specific national contexts as well as across the international realm.
