Amenities and Rural Development. Theory, Methods and Public Policy (en Inglés) - Gary Paul Green;Steven C. Deller;David D. Marcouiller

Amenity-based growth can lead to several paths, based largely on proximity to urban areas and the type of development that occurs, whether it be seasonal residents, retirees, or tourism. The distributional implications of amenity-led development are an important consideration for policy, both within and between communities and regions. The contributors conclude that public policy needs to focus on maximizing complementary and supplementary uses while minimizing antagonistic uses of amenities.

Scholars and policymakers concerned with economic development and natural resource management will find this comprehensive volume of great interest.
