Recenzii

’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
