Trusted brokers in farmland markets: A case study in rural Scotland
This paper explores how social networks and government institutions work in farmland markets, with a special focus on the role of brokers. For this purpose, New Economic Sociology (NES) is applied and compared to New Institutional Economics (NIE) to build a theoretical framework, and a Social Network Analysis is adopted to case studies. Two Parish case studies were conducted in Scotland, where dynamic land pattern changes can be observed. It allo…
Analysis of the enabling environment for delivering land degradation neutrality in Nigeria: Perspectives from the sub-national to local level
The discourse around the planning, monitoring, and assessment of land degradation neutrality (LDN) has been communicated strongly on global and national scales; however, there is relatively little information on the enabling environment that will support the achievement of LDN targets locally. Recognising the dearth of studies that apply the LDN concept at the local scale, this study investigated local stakeholders' perspectives on the progress t…
Sustainability strategies and stakeholder management for upland farming
Upland farming provides important benefits to society. To retain these benefits, measures to encourage farms to adopt practices that balance economic, environmental and social aspects of sustainability are required. This study used survey data from a sample of farms located in less-favoured areas in Northern England to identify the trade-offs between the three dimensions of farm-level sustainability and the impacts of farm behaviours on them, inc…
Farming groups and empowerment of women smallholder farmers
Discrimination and subordination of women have contributed to lower economic and social development levels for women, especially in developing countries. Empowerment of women enables them to gain control of their lives by increasing their participation in the economy and all levels of decision making. This study used mixed method research to examine the social and economic empowerment of women experienced in farming groups. The groups have contri…
Significance of farming groups for resource access and livelihood improvement of rural smallholder women farmers
Farming groups are supposed to increase members’ access to inputs, equipment and better prices for their crops through collective marketing. Through qualitative methods, the study observed that women farming-group members have improved their access to agricultural resources and shifted to better farming methods. Ultimately, they have improved their productivity, incomes and, livelihoods. However, groups have demonstrated different abilities in te…
The future of agriculture in the shrinking suburbs: The impact of real estate income and housing costs
This paper offers solutions to some of the challenges around maintaining productive agricultural land close to cities in countries facing a decline in urban populations. In such circumstances, some farmers have been observed to convert their land into real estate and leave farming before land prices decline, therefore decreasing the area of agricultural land close to large cities. In contrast, many suburban farmers in developed countries remain i…

Determinants of urban sprawl in European cities
This paper provides empirical evidence that helps to answer several key questions relating to the extent of urban sprawl in Europe. Building on the monocentric city model, this study uses existing data sources to derive a set of panel data for 282 European cities at three time points (1990, 2000 and 2006). Two indices of urban sprawl are calculated that, respectively, reflect changes in artificial area and the levels of urban fragmentation for ea…
Conceptualizing Mobility in Times of Crisis: Towards Crisis-Led Counterurbanization
Remoundou K., Gkartzios M. and Garrod G. Conceptualizing mobility in times of crisis: towards crisis-led counterurbanization, Regional Studies. This study makes a novel theoretical and empirical contribution to the counterurbanization literature. Firstly, the research offers a new conceptualization by drawing on the potential for a crisis-led counterurbanization in Athens, Greece. Secondly, the paper employs a quantitative methodology – a choice …

Estimating the Value of Improved Street Lighting: A Factor Analytical Discrete Choice Approach
This paper investigates the benefits of improved street lights to households, associated with the replacement of low-pressure sodium orange/yellow street lights with high-pressure sodium white street lights. Improved street lighting provides higher luminosity, improved colour rendition and less light pollution into the night sky. Benefits include reductions in crime and road accidents, streetscape enhancements and increased amenity attributable t…
An Assessment of the Decision to Extend Government-built Houses in Developing Countries
In an international comparative study of self-help transformations (alterations and extensions) to government-built housing in developing countries, sponsored by the Department for International Development, data were collected on the household and housing characteristics of about 400 households in each of 4 case studies (in Dhaka, Bangladesh; Cairo, Egypt; Kumasi, Ghana; and Harare, Zimbabwe). The data for each country have been used in a two-st…

Income and wealth in house ownership studies in urban Ghana
Housing supply studies are frequently concerned with characteristics such as income which might distinguish those households who supply housing, by having new houses built or by extending, from those who do not. In a study of housing supply in three urban centres in Ghana, this paper considers various measures of income and wealth as determinant variables for housing supply among a sample of 1600 comprising renters, recent builders, recent extend…

Consistency Between Contingent Valuation Estimates: A Comparison of Two Studies of UK National Parks
BATEMAN I., WILLIS K. and GARROD G. (1994) Consistency between contingent valuation estimates: a comparison of two studies of UK National Parks, Reg. Studies 28, 457–474. Recent years have seen a significant increase in the application of the contingent valuation method to the evaluation of environmental preferences in the UK. Recent theoretical and methodological developments suggest that this increase is likely to be sustained for the foreseeab…

Sustainability and the Rural Economy: An Evolutionary Perspective
The authors define the rural economy not as a functional entity but as a complex, open system, the analysis of which requires an interdisciplinary approach oriented to the study of processes and interactions. This evolutionary perspective is illustrated by two generic studies of rural issues: the role played by the postwar planning regime in the definition and management of rural space in Britain; and the connection between agricultural developme…

A Two-stage Econometric Analysis of the Housing Extension Decision in Kumasi, Ghana
Much empirical work has been undertaken on housing production, investment levels and on the changes necessary to increase the supply of housing at a national level. The implicit assumption in these perspectives, that owners buy and sell housing as an adjustment process, is not realised in all housing markets around the world. In fact, in a number of developing countries houses are seldom bought or sold: one such country is Ghana. Here traditional…
