Während der Kulturtourismus in urbanen Zentren bereits erfolgreich etabliert ist, lässt sich im ländlichen Raum noch viel ungenutztes Potenzial identifizieren, das auf seine Entfaltung wartet. Initiativen auf Landes- und Bundesebene sind mit dem Ziel gestartet, über die Entwicklung und Vermarktung kulturtouristischer Angebote auch die Entwicklung ländlicher Regionen insgesamt anzustoßen. Neben diesen dezidiert praxisbezogenen Bemühungen liegen bislang jedoch kaum Publikationen zum Thema vor. Der Band schließt diese Lücke mit weiterführenden Anregungen für mögliche Strategien und Erfolgsfaktoren. Ausgewiesene Expert*innen aus der Kulturtourismusforschung, -praxis und -beratung geben anschauliche Einblicke in verschiedene Aspekte des Kulturtourismus im ländlichen Raum. Dabei werden sowohl die Nachfrage- als auch die Angebotsseite betrachtet und praxisnahe Handlungsempfehlungen gegeben. »Das vorliegende Buch [mag] mit der Beschreibung theoretischer Ansätze, Ergebnissen aus der Forschung und Best-Practice-Beispielen sicher gute erste Impulse liefern. Eine wahre Fundgrube für einen vertieften Einstieg in das Thema bieten die umfangreichen Literaturangaben und -empfehlungen der Autor_innen. Auch für Studierende im Bereich Kulturtourismus sei dieser Band empfohlen.« Sven Christian Finke-Ennen, https://www.kulturmanagement.net, 28.09.2020 »Wenn man ein Buch sucht, in dem ausschließlich der Kulturtourismus im ländlichen Raum behandelt wird, ist dies die beste Lektüre.« Martin Spantig, museum heute, 57/2 (2020) »Hier werden Erfolgsstrategien, Probleme und Herausforderungen von Fachleuten grundlegend auf hohem Niveau dargestellt.« Michael Lausberg, www.scharf-links.de, 08.07.2020 Besprochen in: www.touristiker-nrw.de, 28.07.2020, Tonia Haag

Wie lebt es sich als Migrantin oder Migrant in Graubünden? Am Beispiel der touristischen Region Oberengadin und dem ländlich-peripheren Avers und Schams zeigt diese kulturwissenschaftliche Studie Handlungsspielräume und Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten aus der Sicht von Zugewanderten auf. Wie richten sie sich am Ort und zwischen den Orten ein? Wie entstehen und gestalten sich Zugehörigkeiten? Welche Potenziale bietet die Region Zugewanderten und welche Ressourcen bringen diese mit? Mono- und multilokale Lebensweisen, transnationale Familien, innovatives Unternehmertum - ein breites Spektrum an Lebensentwürfen entfaltet sich.

This paper analyzes poverty in Haiti based on the first Living Conditions Survey of 7,186 households covering the whole country and representative at the regional level. Using a USD 1 a day extreme poverty line, the analysis reveals that 49 percent of Haitian households live in absolute poverty. Twenty, 56, and 58 percent of households in metropolitan, urban, and rural areas, respectively, are poor. At the regional level, poverty is especially extensive in the northeastern and northwestern regions. Access to assets such as education and infrastructure services is highly unequal and strongly correlated with poverty. Moreover, children in indigent households attain less education than children in nonpoor households. Controlling for individual and household characteristics, location, and region, living in a rural area does not by itself affect the probability of being poor. But in rural areas female headed households are more likely to experience poverty than male headed households. Domestic migration and education are both key factors that reduce the likelihood of falling into poverty. Employment is essential to improve livelihoods and both the farm and nonfarm sector play a key role.

Sterbende Dörfer, Verödung und Niedergang: In Wissenschaft und Medien stehen ländliche Räume häufig für Orte des Mangels und der Benachteiligung. Zugleich bringen utopisch anmutende Vorstellungen und Bilder des Lebens auf dem Land so viel Glanz mit sich, dass sie in Werbung und Kultur sowie in den Wünschen und Orientierungen vieler Menschen Anklang finden. Die Beiträger*innen gehen aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven diesem utopischen Glanz nach. Sie fragen, inwiefern »Utopien des Ländlichen« ein Zugang sein können, um Vorstellungen eines gelingenden gesellschaftlichen Zusammenlebens zu entwickeln und zu erproben - und welche konkreten Forderungen für die Regionalentwicklung und -politik damit verbunden sind.

Die Corona-Krise stellt das städtische Zusammenleben auf eine harte Probe. Nicht nur sozialer Austausch, Kultur und Verkehr, sondern auch die kommunale Demokratie ist massiv beeinflusst. Wer kann in der Krise noch mitsprechen? Und wie verändert sie das Zusammenspiel von Verwaltung, Politik und Zivilgesellschaft? Die Beiträger*innen untersuchen anhand von Fallstudien die Auswirkungen der Krise auf die kommunale Beteiligungskultur. Sie fragen mit interdisziplinärem Blick nach der kommunalen Krisenbewältigung und erfolgreichen Governance-Strukturen im Kontext multipler Krisen. Ihr Ansatz der kritischen Urbanistik versteht sich dabei als Einladung zur Reflexion, Debatte und alternativen Praxis.
