While immigrants are still predominantly choosing urban areas to locate to, there is now increasing evidence of immigration to rural areas which poses its own challenges for those relocating, from the scarcity of high quality jobs to the provision of public and private services. Addressing the shortcomings in current research, this book employs an innovative approach by exploring this relationship from a cross-national, comparative, global perspective. It draws lessons from case studies across a range of geographical and political contexts, including Canada, the USA, Ireland, Scotland, Greece and Russia. Bringing together migration experts from a range of academic disciplines, International Migration and Rural Areas contributes to conceptual developments and also identifies policy concerns which can be pursued at national, sub-national and supra-national levels. As such, it will appeal to policy makers, as well as scholars across a range of disciplines, including geography, politics, demography, social policy, sociology and anthropology.

These have arisen from traditional practices and the meaning of terms used and their implication.

"Apart from elected local authorities, there are almost 250 public service bodies operating at sub-national level in Ireland, Using data from a survey of these bodies conducted during 2006, this study provides an original analysis of the governance arrangements for these non-commercial local and regional organisations across a range of themes - including finance, policy, HR and accountability." "As well as presenting an account of the various types of local and regional organisation, the report also identifies the multiple relationships between them and central government. Comparisons are made with previous research conducted for the Committee for Public Management Research which considered the role of non-commercial bodies operating at national level (Research Report No. 6)." "Having examined in detail the current landscape of sub-national governance in Ireland, this report also presents recommendations for its future development across a number of corporate governance issues."--BOOK JACKET.
