Blake, Raymond; Andrew Nurse (editors). The Trajectories of Rural Life: New Perspectives on Rural Canada. : Canadian Plains Research Center and Saskatchewan Institute of Public Policy, 2003
To Acquire Contact: Amazon, Barnes and NobleNotes: "In Canada, the impacts of these changes are all about us: in the absolute population declines in Saskatchewan and Newfoundland, in the crises of the east and west coast fisheries, in the farm crisis, in serious ecological problems, and in the reorientation of rural social services. There is a tendency to view these problems in stark terms: as part of a qualitatively new era in Canadian history triggered, perhaps, by the forces of 'globalization' or 'urbanization' or the rise of the "service sector economy. This book attempts to both resist the seemingly persistent urge to romanticize and prognosticate about rural Canada and the people who live geographically outside the urban environment and suggest different ways of looking at rural life. In this sense, its goal is to build upon an increasingly strong base of research and writing on rural Canada to suggest different perspectives on the countryside, the small town, the environment, and the landscape."
