Cultural Sustainability in Rural Communities: Rethinking Australian Country Towns: summary, description and annotation
We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Cultural Sustainability in Rural Communities: Rethinking Australian Country Towns" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
There has been a recent expansion of interest in cultural approaches to rural communities and to the economic and social situation of rurality more broadly. This interest has been particularly prominent in Australia in recent years, spurring the emergence of an interdisciplinary field called rural cultural studies.This collection is framed by a large interdisciplinary research project that is part of that emergence, particularly focused on what the idea of cultural sustainability might mean for understanding experiences of growth, decline, change and heritage in small Australian country towns. However, it extends beyond the initial parameters of that research, bringing together a range of senior and emerging Australian researchers who offer diverse approaches to rural culture. The essays collected here explore the diverse forms that rural cultural studies might take and how these intersect with other disciplinary approaches, offering a uniquely diverse but also careful account of life in country Australia. Yet, in its emphasis on the simultaneous specificity and cross-cultural recognisability of rural communities, this book also outlines a field of inquiry and a set of critical strategies that are more broadly applicable to thinking about the rural in the early twenty-first century.This book will be valuable reading for students and academics of Geography, History, Literary Studies, Cultural Studies, Anthropology and Sociology, introducing rural cultural studies as a new dynamic and integrative discipline.

Cultural Sustainability in Rural Communities
There has been a recent expansion of interest in cultural approaches to rural communities and to the economic and social situation of rurality more broadly. This interest has been particularly prominent in Australia in recent years, spurring the emergence of an interdisciplinary field called rural cultural studies.
This collection is framed by a large interdisciplinary research project that is part of that emergence, particularly focused on what the idea of cultural sustainability might mean for understanding experiences of growth, decline, change and heritage in small Australian country towns. However, it extends beyond the initial parameters of that research, bringing together a range of senior and emerging Australian researchers who offer diverse approaches to rural culture. The essays collected here explore the diverse forms that rural cultural studies might take and how these intersect with other disciplinary approaches, offering a uniquely diverse but also careful account of life in country Australia. Yet, in its emphasis on the simultaneous specificity and cross-cultural recognisability of rural communities, this book also outlines a field of inquiry and a set of critical strategies that are more broadly applicable to thinking about the rural in the early twenty-first century.
This book will be valuable reading for students and academics of Geography, History, Literary Studies, Cultural Studies, Anthropology and Sociology, introducing rural cultural studies as a dynamic and integrative discipline.

She is a co-editor (with Richard Maltby, Deb Verhoeven and Mike Walsh) of The New Cinema History: A Guide for Researchers (Wiley-Blackwell, 2011) and has published a range of articles on rurality and cinema-going in journals such as Australian Humanities Review and Media International Australia .
