This blog has evolved from a book of the same name. Rurality is interpreted in many ways depending on individual encounters with rural space and this leads to different ways of conceiving the social and economic challenges that rural communities face. The blog represents the personal views of Professor Gary Bosworth, who is a Visiting Professor of Rural Entrepreneurship in Lincoln International Business School and Professor of Entrepreneurship at Northumbria University.
//A new book has been published critiquing concepts of “marginality” and “peripherality” and exploring the economic potential of more peripheral regions. It can be previewed here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Regional-Development-Northern-Europe-Peripherality/dp/0415601533/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1331885882&sr=8-2
