Summary Annotation Rural Wales in the Twenty-First Centuryexplores the ever-changing geographies in rural Wales today. Written by experts in human geography and sociology, the essays analyze the ways in which the contemporary geographies of rural Wales are bound up with rather complex connections between society, culture, economy, and environment. Among the numerous topics discussed are rural demographics, the cultural impacts of immigration, labor markets, food and farming, and environmental sustainability. The book uses these accounts to provide a broader critique of rural geography and rural studies in the United Kingdom and other developed countries.
