‘It's a Mission and a Profession’. The Typology of Rural Entrepreneurs and Their Role in the Social Construction of Landscapes
Landscapes are collectively constructed entities, with many actors involved in the process, one of the most important being rural entrepreneurs. We examine the relationship between rural entrepreneurs and the landscape from both sides, as a two‐way entrepreneurial process, to shed light on entrepreneurs’ use of environmental resources and the social benefits and value‐creating aspects of their activity in a given place. Our research investigates …

Rural gentrification and local food networks
Academic literature identifies local food networks and producerconsumer communities as important initiators of local community development and sources of sustainable production and consumption. A small producer-consumer community, a so-called shopping community, in a small rural town in Hungary is examined in this case study. The size of the region and the limited number of potential consumers lead to a number of specific characteristics. Both th…

After a Long March
This paper aims to show the main processes of rural restructuring of Hungary after the change of political system and EU integration. It describes the changes of agricultural land-use, new dynamics of urban rural relations and rural devel- opment of the last 25 years. In the paper, we argue that the most dynamic changes happened in the era of post-communism, ended by EU-accession and the era of consolidation. A characteristic phenomenon of these …
A vidékimázs és helyi identitás kutatásának lehetőségei és módszerei
A helyi sajátosságok, értékek megjelenítése a vidékimázs és a helyi identitás megerősítése és fejlesztése egyre fontosabb kérdés a vidéki térségekben élők számára, mivel azok megjelennek a települések és helyi közösségek fejlesztési startégiáiban, de befolyásolják az adott térség idegenforgalomban, migrációs folyamatokban betöltött szerepét is. Napjainkban egyre hangsúlyosabb szerephez jut Magyarországon is vidékiség értelmezések vizsgálata, így …

The value of cultural ecosystem services in a rural landscape context
Academic interest in ecosystem services has been growing in the past ten years or more with an increasing number of research studies and papers being dedicated to this complex and diverse field of enquiry. However, Cultural Ecosystem Services have been relatively under-researched, especially in terms of their value to landscapes. The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (2005) argued that cultural services and values were not recognised enough in land…
Önmegvalósítás, nosztalgia és család-munka egyensúly
A tanulmány a magyar vidéki társadalomban új csoportként megjelenő, ún. kreatív női vállalkozókat elemzi vidékszociológiai megközelítésben. A tanulmány egy kvalitatív szociológiai vizsgálatra épül, amelyben 48 félig strukturált interjú készült olyan kreatív vidéki vállalkozónőkkel, akik kreatív és újító termékeikkel, valamint szolgáltatásaikkal az elmúlt évtizedekben jelentek meg a világhálón, a vidéki fesztiválokon, illetve a helyi gazdaságban, …
Narrative Identities and the Egalitarian Norm Among Hungarian Elite Couples
Our article aims to study the attitudes of the elite to family life and gender equality. This is a social group who still experiences significant gender imbalances. We focus on attitudes to family life, which has thus far been underresearched in elite literature. With the help of the analysis of 34 individual interviews with members of the Hungarian political, economic, and cultural elite, we identify and present three types of narrative identiti…
Governing Social Innovation
Despite the extensive areas of under-used green and brownfield land that remain in public ownership, little academic attention has thus far been given to the role of the public sector in utilising this resource for shared forms of community food growing. Building upon recent calls for more research targeted towards the governance of social innovation, but also the spaces and places in which it occurs, this article presents an in-depth qualitative…
Knowledge, Power and Sustainability in Contemporary Rural Europe
This article looks at the evidence employed in the CORASON (the cognitive approach to rural sustainable development: the dynamics of expert and lay knowledge) research project of changing rural power relations in the context of sustainability and knowledge use in Europe. It explores what kinds of knowledge contribute to sustainable development in rural development projects and how they are created or empowered, according to the interest and capac…
