Abstract
The European approach to rural development policies is
gradually shifting to spatial differentiation, blending the
territorial dimension. A differentiation of the rural character
based on specific attributes of the territory is required,
including lifestyles, supply of services and amenities and
competition in soil use. We present a classification of the
municipalities in Lombardy (Italy) aimed at providing recommendations
for the development of regional policies.
Grounding on four different and independently developed
thematic classification relating to the heterogeneity in
urban-rural linkages, the social morphology, the economic
geography and the geographical morphology we construct
a unified classification of municipalities that considers the
multidimensionality of the rural attribute.
