Deconstruction and hermeneutical space as keys to understanding the rural
2020
The purpose of this article is to complement the existing literature on defining the rural by suggesting a novel approach that makes possible a holistic understanding of the rural. The proposed approach is based on deconstruction of the concept of the rural and on hermeneutical philosophy. The current approaches applied in rural studies are evaluated through the lens of holistic understanding, and solutions to the observed problems are discussed. The problems of current rural studies stem from inadequate conceptualization and biased social theory. The conceptual problems can be alleviated, firstly, by understanding the concept of space not only literally but also figuratively. Secondly, the…
L’habitat durable sans l’habiter ? Fabrique de la densité en Bourgogne
2017
In 2009 and 2010, in order to combat the urban sprawl, the Grenelle Environment sets out urban density as a public policy issue. This notion builds on a modus operandi of an urbanization regime that includes both the environmental and the participatory dimensions in its approach. This injunction of sustainability is there implemented through a range of standards, rules and procedures, while the stakeholders in urbanism strive to arrange the experience of inhabiting. But how does this apparatus take the test of reality into account? Based on a qualitative research carried out from 2012 to 2015 on urban planning projects intended to increase density in urban and suburban areas in Burgundy, th…
From Analysis to Formulation of Strategies for Farm Advisory Services (Case Study: Valencia – Spain). an Application through Swot and Qspm Matrix
2019
Abstract European agriculture should meet new increasing internal and contextual challenges. For example, the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy in 2003 introduced the cross-compliance, among other novelties, as compulsory for farmers. To better meet this and other requirements, Member States had to set up the so-called Farm Advisory System, operational across the European Union in 2007. From a sample of actors involved in the provision of farm advisory services in the region of Valencia (Spain), the present study aimed to identify the most appropriate strategies to implement such services. SWOT method has been applied to examine the internal and external environment. Based on this di…
Aktywność sołectw wspierających rozwój społeczny w ramach Programu Odnowy Wsi w latach 2013-2015
2018
Odnowa wsi jako metoda rozwoju stanowi jeden ze sposobów osiągania celów rozwojowych, rozumianych nie tylko w kontekście poprawy jakości infrastruktury, ale poprawy szeroko rozumianej jakości życia, której nie osiągniemy bez zaangażowania samych mieszkańców. Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie Programu Odnowy Wsi (na przykładzie województwa opolskiego) jako elementu przyczyniającego się do rozwoju kapitału społecznego, czego wyrazem może być liczba przedsięwzięć realizowanych przez poszczególne sołectwa. Zostały przeanalizowane sprawozdania sołectw (około 600 rocznie) z realizacji programu w latach 2013-2015. Podstawową metodą prezentacji wyników badań jest analiza opisowa z użyciem metod il…
Sysmä Community Currency: An Analysis of its Success from the Perspectives of Purposes, Stakeholders and Promotion
2019
Artikkeli on tapaustutkimus paikallisrahajärjestelmästä, jota kokeiltiin äskettäin maalaisympäristössä Sysmän kunnassa. Paikallisraha on yksi innovaatiivisista aloitteista, joita kunta on tehnyt tällä vuosituhannella torjuakseen jo 1960-luvulta alkaen käynnissä ollutta väestökatoa. Tässä artikkelissa tutkitaan paikallisrahan käynnistysvaihetta siihen sisältyneiden ristiriitojen näkökulmasta. Artikkelissa todetaan, että järjestelmä kärsi epäselvästä tavoitteenasettelusta, ja että eri osallisilla oli tavoittesta vaihtelevia ja ristiriitaisia käsityksiä. Paikallisrahan sosiaalista hyväksyntää heikensivät päätös rajoittaa rahaa vastaanottavien yritysten joukko kunnassa kirjoilla oleviin yrityks…
Is Broad the New Deep in Environmental Ethics? A Comparison of Broad Ecological Justice and Deep Ecology
2016
I argue in this article that a theory of broad ecological justice or the extended capabilities approach, an interesting approach in contemporary environmental ethics, shares many of its core ideas with deep ecology and Arne Næss’s ecosophy T. The similarities between these approaches include the ambition to address the roots of environmental problems, emphasis on recognition and the criticism of oppressive structures, and a systemic orientation. Acknowledging these similarities illustrates the contemporary value of the deep ecology movement. It also helps to develop the theory of broad ecological justice further, especially in terms of bridging the gap between movements and theoretical disc…
Fonds structurels, effets de débordement géographique et croissance régionale en Europe.
2008
Les fonds structurels constituent l’un des instruments financiers de la politique regionale europeenne les plus intensement utilises afin de promouvoir la convergence entre les regions des pays membres de l’Union europeenne. Cependant, de nombreuses divergences theoriques et empiriques existent dans la litterature quant a leur capacite a encourager la croissance economique des regions les plus defavorisees. Par consequent, cet article se propose de proceder a des estimations complementaires en integrant des elements nouveaux : tout d’abord, nous adoptons une approche par l’econometrie spatiale afin de prendre en compte de possibles effets de debordement geographique entre regions ; ensuite,…
