The attention of architects and planners has been almost entirely focused on the city for many years, while rural spaces are all too often associated with visions of economic decline, stagnation and resignation. However, rural spaces are transforming almost as radically as cities. Furthermore, rural spaces play a decisive role in the sustainable development of our living environment?inextricably interlinked with the city as a resource or reservoir. The formerly segregated countryside is now traversed by global and regional flows of people, goods, waste, energy, and information, linking it to urban systems and enabling them to function in the first place. 0'Ruralism' is dedicated to the significance of rural spaces as a starting point for transformation: what notions of rural life currently exist? What is the connection between urban and rural concepts? Can these connections provide new impulses for shaping (urban) space? International experts illuminate rural spaces from an architectural, cultural, gender-oriented, ecological, and political perspective and ask how a (new) vision of the rural can be formulated. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 650 0 $a Rural-urban relations $v Congresses. 650 0 $a Urbanization $v Congresses. 650 0 $a Rural development $v Congresses. 650 0 $a City planning $v Congresses. 700 1 $a Carlow, Vanessa Miriam. 711 2 $a ISU Talks (conference) $n (3rd : $d Novermber 18, 2015 : $c Braunschweig, Germany) 710 2 $a Institute for Sustainable Urbanism, $e sponsoring body. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230302015945.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3A8C4EC0475911E7B35354A3DAD10320 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
