Public concern over issues such as the conversion of agricultural land, urban sprawl and the management of public lands has never been greater. This book provides a broad overview of the economics of land-use change, now a significant public policy issue. Presenting a novel synopsis of the economics of land-use the book examines the critical issues involved, such as transportation and technological change, and the economic principles behind them. Chapters are specifically designed to demonstrate the types of land-use questions economic analysis can answer; the types of methods that might be employed to answer the questions; and the potential uses of economic analysis in policy-making. The book will be a key contribution to contemporary land-use studies, highlighting the key methodological and public policy issues that will be central to future research on the economics of land-use change in the future.
Industry Reviews
'Are you interested in an exploration of the potentials of modern rurality? If the answer is yes, this book on new policies in rural areas, strategies for local entrepreneurship and sustainable territorial innovations is essential reading for you.' Professor Dr Antoine Bailly, University of Geneva, Switzerland 'Vaz, Morgan, and Nijkamp have met an important need in the literature of regional development with The New European Rurality. They focus on the enormous territory and substantial population that is left over? when urbanization is discussed. The theory based discussions of entrepreneurship and structural change in peripheral regions are complemented by well researched case studies. This important book completes the core-periphery discussion by providing the other story?.' Professor Lay James Gibson, University of Arizona, USA 'This book...should be welcomed by scholars in the international entrepreneurship field who are interested in small business perspectives...[it] offers a unique insight into the role of rural regions in fostering entrepreneurial activities in Europe...I would recommend this book as an interesting and innovative perspective on entrepreneurship in Europe that is treading on new ground worthy of increased attention.' Journal of International Entrepreneurship
