Resumen
Descripción
While there are numerous forces altering the opportunity set
for rural policy deliberations in the U.S. and elsewhere [OECD 1990
& 1993] there are three of particular interest: (1) the growing documentation
and awareness of the diversity of rural; (2) the growing
sensitivity of the federal budget (surplus/deficit) and its perceived
effect on the choices the federal government has to address national
issues; and (3) the increased social-political-economic attention paid
to the changing role of government in the affairs of people. These
forces provide an opportunity to rethink how we might address the
issues concerning the 20 percent of our population that reside in rural
America.
