Rural Sociology

The journal of the Rural Sociological Society explores sociological and interdisciplinary approaches to emerging social issues and new approaches to recurring social issues affecting rural people and places.

Published on behalf of the Rural Sociological Society, the journal is particularly interested in advancing sociological theory and welcomes the use of a wide range of social science methodologies. Papers use a sociological perspective to address the effects of local and global systems on rural people and places, rural community revitalization, rural demographic changes, rural poverty, natural resource allocations, the environment, food and agricultural systems, and related topics from all regions of the world.

Rural Sociology also includes papers that significantly advance the measurement of key sociological concepts or provide well-documented critical analysis of one or more theories as these measures and analyses are related to rural sociology.
