Written by a leading rural sociologist in the United States, Interactions Between Agroecosystems and Rural Communities shows how human behavior impacts agroecosystems both positively and negatively and provides the reader with an understanding of alternative ways of working with human communities to increase agroecosystem sustainability. Through a general overview and a series of case studies, it demonstrates how changes in the economy influence what local people can do to sustain agroecosystems. It also deals with specific community-based actions that have resulted in more sustainable agroecosystems.
