In the past, peasants and their seemingly simple production models have been criticized for being unable to fully meet the needs of modern society, especially when it comes to world hunger, food quality, and sustainability. However, often neglected is the myriad of new initiatives that alter the way food is produced and marketed. New â˜peasant marketsâ are created everywhere and new products and services abound. This volume argues that these initiatives represent âœseeds of transitionâ; they are the âœsproutsâ out of which new socio-technical modes for organizing production and marketing emerge â âœsproutsâ that, taken together, can be summarized as âœrural developmentâ. This book critically discusses these new practices and the actors engaged in them. In doing so, it deals with several countries in three different continents (Asia, South America and Europe). It proposes new concepts and approaches for a better understanding of the re-emergence of peasants as indispensable part of modern societies.Research in rural sociology and development ;v. 22.Social ScienceSociologyRuralbisacshRural communitiesbicsscSociology: work & labourbicsscRural developmentCommunity developmentSocial ScienceSociologyRural.Rural communities.Sociology: work & labour.Rural development.Community development.307.1412Milone Pierluigi288465Ventura Flaminia84272Ye Jingzhong1251388UtOrBLWBOOK9910651794603321Constructing a new framework for rural development2900607UNINA
