Book Description
The fourth thematic working group of the ENRD was formally launched in February 2010 in order to look at how EU Member states and Regions implemented their rural development programmes (RDPs). Under the guidance of the Commission (Directorate General for Agriculture and Rural Development - DG AGRI) and the participation of national experts, the group aimed at: assessing what worked well and less well in the delivery of the 2007-2013 EU rural development programmes; identifying common issues and the ways in which they have been overcome and; suggesting possible further improvements.

Book Description
This book is one of the main outcomes of the projects “Development Programmes and Rural Change in the European Union: governance, results and lessons to share”and “Successes and failures in the practice of neoendogenous rural development in the European Union (1991-2013)”, funded both of them by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness. This publication aims, on one side, to clarify and deepen the knowledge of the social, economic and territorial effects of the LEADER approach, and, on the other, to analyze the importante of the participation of several stakeholders (young people and women) as well as some traditional activities –agriculture- or modern ones (tourism) linked all of them to the rich cultural and natural heritage of these areas. It also provides an in-depth study of the causes that lead to the generation of successful projects in the practice of neoendogenous rural development and also explores the reasons that cause certain projects to fail in the path towards LEADER support so that they are finally not implemented. In addition, it is shown the problems, results and best practices that cause the neoendogenous rural development in different areas inside of the European Union: Austria, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and United Kingdom. Thereby it helps to improve the decision-making in rural development, both on a local and regional scale. The multidisciplinary and international character of the authors, as well as the specificity of the research trajectory of each of them, in the analysis of rural development, enriches the publication and facilitates the different and critical reflections on the contributions, errors and meaning of the neoendogenous local development. Researchers in this discipline and technicians working in the practice of rural development along the European Union are the main audience of the book.

Book Description
Leader is an approach for implementing the EU's rural development policy through local action groups (LAGs). This involves specific costs and risks but promises an added value from following a bottom-up and partnership approach. In this report the Court finds that lags implemented the Leader approach in ways that limited the potential for added value and gave grants to projects without due regard to efficiency. Procedures were not always transparent and did not sufficiently demonstrate that the lags took decisions on an objective basis, free from conflicts of interest. The Commission has not yet demonstrated the effectiveness or efficiency of the expenditure, the added value achieved through following the leader approach, the extent to which the known risks have materialised or the real costs of implementation.

Book Description
The European Union's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has sought to ensure a positive and supportive policy framework for farming and, since 2000, to aid the development of rural areas in a sustainable way. For over thirty years, the CAP has undergone successive reforms which have gradually increased its market orientation for agriculture, while providing income support and safety net mechanisms for producers, as well as funding structural and environmental changes. The 2nd Pillar of the CAP, introduced in 2000, progressively acknowledged balanced territorial development and encompassed it under rural development. It addresses competitiveness, integration of environmental concerns (since 2000), quality of life and economic activities in rural areas (since 2007), then social exclusion and rural poverty (since 2014). The 2nd Pillar aims for economic, environmental, and social sustainability realised through agriculture, economic diversity and vitality in rural areas, as well as social inclusion. Bottom-up and participatory approaches have been fundamental to fostering rural development and balanced territorial development. These are most visible in three components of the 2nd Pillar: LEADER, rural networking at EU and national levels, and innovation via innovation brokering and Operational Groups supported by the European Innovation Partnership. The 2nd pillar of the CAP is implemented through 118 Rural Development Programmes (RDPs), at Member State or regional level across the EU-281.

Book Description
"Member States implement a large part of the EU's rural development policy by providing grants towards the costs of investments and other projects undertaken by farmers, rural businesses, associations and local authorities. The Court found that some Member States had poorly designed systems for checking that the costs of these grants were reasonable. Workable and cost-effective approaches existed but were not widely followed. The Court outlines good practices found in the course of its audit, and concludes that there is considerable scope for making real savings in rural development project grants in the 2014-20 period by applying these good practices."--Publisher's description.

Book Description
Contemporary processes of economic, social, political and cultural restructuring are having profound impacts on the form and function of rural areas within the countries of the European Union and beyond. Furthermore, rural development policies and programmes at EU and national levels have been critical in shaping the responses of different rural areas across Europe to these wider processes of restructuring. Contrasting empirical studies of ten European countries, this volume provides a comprehensive analysis of the restructuring processes and the various national, regional and local rural development programmes. Adopting a different national perspective in each chapter, it focuses particularly on issues of power and leadership in the evolution and administration of these programmes. Five broad issues are examined in each case: socio-economic changes in rural areas, the administrative context in which rural development and political activities take place, the sociological context, the political control of rural development, and the use of different discourses of rurality in shaping the development process.

Book Description
The objective of this study was to assess the contribution of the European Network for Rural Development (ENRD) and the National Rural Networks (NRNs) to the implementation of European Union (EU) Rural Development (RD) Policy. This policy, also called the second pillar of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), concerns 118 Rural Development Programmes (RDPs) implemented at national or regional level in the Member States (MS) for the 2014-2020 programming period.1 This study covers the tasks of the ENRD and the NRN established under Articles 52 and 54 of Regulation (EU) No. 1305/2013 (Rural Development Regulation). The study covers the EU-27 and the United Kingdom. It concerns the 2014-2020 programming period, extended until 2022, with the 2007-2013 period serving as a benchmark. The study was implemented from December 2021 to December 2022, with the observing phase ending in June 2022.

Book Description
Despite an EU-wide commitment to rural development, research has rarely focused on the lives of young people in rural areas, their experiences in education and employment, their perceptions of policies relevant to them, and their possibilities of participation. Based on a two-year European research project on policies and young people in rural development, this edited volume examines these issues and considers young people's experiences of rural life in Austria, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Portugal and Scotland. The volume is organized thematically with each chapter addressing a specific topic in one or more countries. These topics comprise: the attractiveness of rural areas to young people; the impact of programmes under the European Employment Guidelines; rural youth in local community development and partnerships; rural development programmes and their impact on youth integration; the role of social networks; and the transition from education to employment. A number of implications for policy and practice are drawn out in conclusion. This book will be of interest to anyone concerned with the future of rural areas and with those who live in the European countryside.

Book Description
The LEADER programme, initiated in 1991, aims to improve the development potential of rural areas in the European Union by drawing on local initiatives and skills. Highlighting this unique policy approach, this book presents up-to-date research results on LEADER’s achievements and restrictions at the local level in a comparative way in order to discuss its merits and problems. What makes LEADER important is not only that it has a major role in rural development efforts, but also that it has a pioneering role in the new type of governance, participatory democracy. Asking whether LEADER strengthens local democracy or not, this book also looks at how it affects the power balance among stakeholders, between national and local actors and between genders. It questions whether LEADER projects are genuinely grass-root level activities, reflecting local needs and ideals; and if the approach brings local know-how back onto the development agenda in innovations and development activities. Finally, the authors examine the success of dissemination of knowledge within the LEADER programme to other regions.
