Conceptualizing Spatial Diversity in Latin American Rural Development: Structures, Institutions, and Coalitions
介绍了一项在11个拉美国家开展五年、旨在回答经济增长、减贫与收入分配改善共存问题的研究项目，概述了分析框架、方法论及概念框架。
This article is the introduction to a volume containing findings from a program conducted over five years in 11 Latin America countries, to answer three questions: (1) Are there rural territories that have experienced simultaneous economic growth, poverty reduction, and improved distribution of income?; (2) What factors determine these territorial dynamics?, and; (3) What can be done to stimulate and promote this kind of territorial dynamics? The article outlines the analytical and policy issues and the methodology, summarizes the remaining 10 papers in the collection, and presents a conceptual framework that itself is one of the results of the program.
