Socio-economic adjustments to rural depopulation
Commins P. (1978) Socio-economic adjustments to rural depopulation, Reg. Studies 12, 79–94. A more determined approach by policy agencies to the problems of rural depopulation is advocated in this paper. The necessity for this is specified in terms of social equity considerations, the undesirable consequences of urban concentration, and the needs of rural communities arising from rationalisation programmes in agriculture. Additionally, a general review of rural population trends suggests that stabilisation had become increasingly feasible at least up until the recent economic recession. The demographic experiences of Ireland in substantially reversing century-old trends in regional depopulation indicate the need for caution against accepting the extreme population concentrations of older industrial societies as economically necessary or inevitable. Inter-relationships between agriculture, industrial, human resources, and social policies have to be recognised to a greater extent than hitherto at national or E.E.C. levels.
