National Conversation on the Future of Our Communities Compendium Sibella Kraus’ “A Call for New Ruralism” was recently selected by the national Smart Growth Network as one of 20 papers included in the National Conversation on the Future of Our Communities Compendium. This paper proposes the concept of “New Ruralism”—the preservation and enhancement of urban edge, rural agricultural areas as places that are indispensable to the economic, environmental, social, and cultural vitality of cities and metropolitan regions—as a framework for creating a bridge between sustainable agriculture and smart growth. |
