Excerpt from Rural Residents and Urban Expansion This report of nonfarm residents in a township on the edge of the Lansing, Mich metropolitan area complements an earlier one of farmers in the same township. Similar questions were asked in both sur veys, so that responses might be compared. The objective of the study was to obtain data on attitudes toward the problems that urbanization would cause for farmers and nonfarm rural residents and for the town ship government.

Excerpt from The Revival of Population Growth in Nonmetropolitan America The vast rural-to-urban migration of people that was the common pattern of us. Population movement in the decades after World War II has been halted and, on balance, even reversed. During 1970-73, nonmetropolitan areas gained percent in population compared to only percent for metro areas. In the eyes of many Americans, the appeal of major urban areas has diminished and the attractiveness of rural and small town communities has increased, economi cally and otherwise. The result is a new trend that is already having an impact, one that modifies much we have taken for granted about population distribution.

Excerpt from The Rural-Urban Fringe: A Study of Adjustment to Residence Location It is impossible to acknowledge all those who have contributed to or influenced this study. Professor George A. Lundberg as an inspiring teacher and ceaseless proponent of quantitative analysis did much to stimulate my interest in social research. Professor Calvin F. Schmid not only made helpful suggestions in relation to the study itself but is re membered gratefully for his friendly guidance and encouragement since my days as a college freshman. Although Dr. Jesse F. Steiner took no direct part in the project, he more than anyone else aroused my interest in human ecology and has been a consistent source of encouragement.

Excerpt from The Metropolitan Community Toward the close of the nineteenth century the city began to play a new réle in the evolution of settlement in the United States. With the rise of manufacturing, population and wealth became increasingly concentrated in the larger cities. The demand of the city for raw materials for its growing industries, and for specialized types of agricultural products for its increasing population, more and more determined the course of rural settle ment.' New frontiers continued to arise, but chiefly in areas from which products might be obtained to supply the domestic city market. On the other hand, many of the older areas of rural settlement began to recede in response to the economic forces originating in metropolitan centers. With the growth of population and wealth throughout the nation, the city acquired an increasing range of economic and social functions which it performed not only for its own inhabitants but for rural settle ments as well. Accordingly it increased in economic and cultural dominance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Rural Life and Education: A Study of the Rural-School Problem as a Phase of the Rural-Life Problem To one who has given little or no attention to the subject, it is hard to appreciate the geat revolution in rural life which has taken place during the past th?e'e' quarters of a century. The changes which have been accomplished have been of far-reaching importance, and they have touched every phase of rural life. Almost nothing is now as it used to be; almost nothing is done now as it was three quarters of a century ago. We of to-day live in a new world a world of which our grandfathers scarcely dreamed. Life everywhere to-day is far more complex, intricate, diflicult, and fruitful of both pleasure and profit than was that of which our grandfathers formed a part. The great changes which have taken place in living and industry have affected all of our people, rural and urban, but perhaps nowhere has the revolution in living and industry been of more far-reaching importance than to those of our people who live on the farms and in the little villages of our nation.

How do rural Chinese households deal with the conflicting pressures of migrating into cities to work as well as staying at home to preserve their fields? This is particularly challenging for rice farmers, because paddy fields have to be cultivated continuously to retain their soil quality and value. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork and written sources, this book describes farming households' strategic solutions to this predicament. It shows how, in light of rural-urban migration and agro-technological change, they manage to sustain both migration and farming. It innovatively conceives rural households as part of a larger farming community of practice that spans both staying and migrating household members and their material world. Focusing on one exemplary resource - paddy fields - it argues that socio-technical resources are key factors in understanding migration flows and migrant-home relations. Overall, this book provides rare insights into the rural side of migration and farmers' knowledge and agency.

Excerpt from Urbanization of Land in the Northeastern United States During 1950-60, land in 96 counties in 12 Northeastern States shifted from rural to urban use at the rate of about acres per year. Of this acreage, 85 percent went into residential use that was predominantly open type; that is, averaging above acre per dwelling. Fifteen percent was used for industrial, commercial, institutional, and recreational purposes, and for airports. About 22 acre was converted to urban use for each person added to the population of the 96 counties. About 50 percent of the land urbanized had been used as cropland, al though only about 24 percent of the rural land in the entire study area was being used for this purpose in 1958. Cropland converted to urban use was largely the better farmland. About 80 percent was in land use capability classes i-iii-land that is level to gently rolling and has good surface and internal drainage.

Excerpt from City Growth Essen It would be impossible to measure the savings consequent upon this intelligent hastening of the economic process which brings land into its proper use. The savings which will be made will be mea sured not only in terms of greater utility at that moment in land, but also by the enormous expenses incident to mistakes in urban planning and development. Streets will be built of more adequate size and uses more wisely allocated to the territories to which they are best adapted and toward which they would eventually, inevitably gravitate. In any study of American cities, it must be kept constantly in mind that American cities are as yet young and are consequently dynamic. The comparatively static conditions in cities of European countries may offer excellent opportunities for research, but forbid unthinking following of methods and plans worked out in those cities. The enormous amount of wealth and of population concentrated in American cities staggers the imagination when it is remembered that that concentration has been accomplished within but little more than a century. Concepts that today are adequate, tomorrow have been laid on the shelf as antiquated by the dynamic force of Amer ican growth. Here in the span of a decade or two one can see the results of forces which in a more static community might take generations to work out.

Listen, Copy, Read: Popular Learning in Early Modern Japan endeavors to elucidate the mechanisms by which a growing number of men and women of all social strata became involved in acquiring knowledge and skills during the Tokugawa period. It offers an overview of the communication media and tools that teachers, booksellers, and authors elaborated to make such knowledge more accessible to a large audience. Schools, public lectures, private academies or hand-copied or printed manuals devoted to a great variety of topics, from epistolary etiquette or personal ethics to calculation, divination or painting, are here invoked to illustrate the vitality of Tokugawa Japan’s ‘knowledge market’, and to show how popular learning relied on three types of activities: listening, copying and reading. With contributions by: W.J. Boot, Matthias Hayek, Annick Horiuchi, Michael Kinski, Koizumi Yoshinaga, Peter Kornicki, Machi Senjūrō, Christophe Marquet, Markus Rüttermann, Tsujimoto Masashi, and Wakao Masaki.

Excerpt from Industrial Employment and Other Factors in Selecting an Area for Rural Development: Survey of 8 Southeastern States Information was not available for l of the 2 counties in the State. 2 Includes independent cities in Virginia. An increase in the number of manufacturing plants is generally looked upon with favor because it is assumed the increase affords greater Opportuni ties for part or full-time employment, not only for urban population but also for farmers and nonagricultural workers in rural areas who seek additional income. An increase in manufacturing establishments, however, does not always result in a net increase in the number Of persons employed in the county. The number Of individuals employed by the new establishments may not offset the number of employees released by manufacturing plants that go out Of business, consolidate with other firms, or relocate outside the county. For example, 10a counties in the 8 States had net decreases in number Of employees even though the number Of manufacturing plants increased between l9h7 and 195h (table Of the counties for which data were available, 326 had net ih creases in both number of manufacturing establishments and number Of employee For the 10a remaining counties, comparable information was not available.
