The loss of the productive character strongly contributed to the emergence of new roles and functions, particularly related to leisure and tourism. The book aims to discuss questions directly related to the connections between rural tourism and local socioeconomic contexts, presenting diverse theoretical and methodological perspectives and diff erent case studies from various European regions. The book addresses the relationships among rural tourism and the complex interactions, confl icts and innovative processes developing in rural territories as consequence of the implementation of tourism activities. The book responds to some relevant and not yet comprehensively researched aspects within this topic, especially in what extent tourism, in its various forms and processes, might give an important contribution to rural development. 410 0$aStrumenti per la didattica e la ricerca (Florence, Italy) ;$v148. 606 $aRural development$zEurope$vCongresses 615 0$aRural development 676 $a307.1412094 702 $aFigueiredo$b Elisabete Maria Melo 702 $aRaschi$b Antonio 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910571740103321 996 $aFertile links$93364325 997 $aUNINA
