rural-urban linkages, sustainability, globalisationResumen
This article examines recent evidence from a wide range of countries in Latin America, Asia and Africa, about the intensity of ties linking urban and rural areas. An understanding of how rural-urban linkages operate in different contexts and how they are shaped by factors such as economic policies, administrative measures and planning regulations is important, as this has an effect on the livelihoods particularly of the poorer and more vulnerable households and enterprises. With the help of illustrations, the article highlights the problems and opportunities that arise from processes of change resulting from, among others, urban growth, migration, and flows of services and goods (including solid and liquid waste).
