Depopulation in a prosperous agricultural sub-region
Drudy P. J. (1978) Depopulation in a prosperous agricultural sub-region, Reg. Studies 12, 49–60. It is little known that the phenomenon of depopulation is not confined to the marginal argricultural regions of Britain but is present in prosperous regions also. This paper examines the extent of depopulation in one such prosperous sub-region, North Norfolk in eastern England. The process is shown to have accelerated during the most recent decade. Among the contributory factors are the agricultural adjustments which have caused a high rate of redundancy and the lack of employment alternative to agriculture. It appears that the theory of ‘cumulative causation’ may have special relevance towards explaining the phenomenon.
