Each chapter provides a concise and well-illustrated introduction to a key theme in rural geography, using current literature and contemporary examples.

The volume takes a global perspective but is largely centred on the Global North, reflecting the tradition of scholarship in rural geography.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRural Geographies\u003c\/em\u003e is driven by thinking in human geography.
