Book Description
There has been a long tradition of voluntary sector activity in Irish rural development, with organisations such as Muintir na T{re playing a prominent role in implementing development initiatives in rural areas before it's decline in the 1980s. Newer organisations have emerged in the last ten years to continue voluntary development work in rural areas. This thesis attempts to chart the expansion of two of these organisations, Irish Rural Link and Irish Country Holidays and assess their influence on two local-level groups affiliated to them. It also examines the role that both local-level groups played in the development of their own areas. The influence and importance of EU support funding for the development of rural areas is also reviewed.

Renegotiating Rural Development in Ireland
Author: John McDonagh
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351756176
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
This title was first published in 2002: As rural Ireland undergoes deep-reaching changes, this book critically assesses what the author terms the "renegotiation of rural development" in Ireland through the repackaging, reproduction and representation of suggestions, ideas and alternatives for rural renewal. Deconstructing the process and practice of rural development in Ireland, the author explores the new approaches to development and the so-called desire for creating integrative policy and planning approaches. The main conduits for this investigation are those of partnership and community groups and their involvement in rural development issues. Further, through investigation of the relevant concepts and theories of rural change, the volume delves into the discourses of rurality and development and utilizes the diversity of approaches and understanding of, this increasingly complex issue.

Participatory Rural Planning
Author: Michael Murray
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317083776
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
Participatory Rural Planning presents the argument that citizen participation in planning affairs transcends a rights-based legitimacy and an all too frequent perception of being mere consultation. Rather, it is part of a social learning process that can enhance the prospects for successful implementation, provide opportunity for reflection and create a mutuality of respect between different stakeholders in the planning arena. Accordingly, Michael Murray signposts what can work well and what should work differently in regard to participatory planning by taking rural Ireland as the empirical laboratory and exploring the Irish experience at different spatial scales from the village, through to the locality, the sub regional and the regional levels.
