Exploring the Intersections of Race, Space, and Political Economy

In the globalized world, rural areas have been increasingly marginalized, experiencing economic decline, population loss, and a lack of social and political power.

This book examines the intersection of race and rurality in the global economy, exploring how racial inequality and rural disadvantage are interconnected and mutually constitutive.

Drawing on case studies from around the world, the book argues that race and rurality are key factors in shaping the experiences and outcomes of people living in rural areas.
