The study of RSEs recognizes the importance of place-based actions for development. Social impacts of RSEs have been touted, particularly in filling roles in the rural context that are underperformed by governments and private actors. However, RSEs' social impact measurement remains emerging. This review confirms that measurement of RSEs' social impact, and its attribution to RSEs' interventions, remain underdeveloped and lacking in both rigour and consistency. Solutions are proposed that contribute to improved methodological approaches applicable to rural regions and appropriate for related interventions confronting spatial disparities in rural development. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Regional Studies, Regional Science, 10(1), p. 139-166 | Publisher: | Routledge | Place of Publication: | United Kingdom | ISSN: | 2168-1376 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2020: | 440609 Rural and regional geography | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2020: | 280123 Expanding knowledge in human society | Peer Reviewed: | Yes | HERDC Category Description: | C1 Refereed Article in a Scholarly Journal | WorldCat record: | https://www.worldcat.org/title/9818103902 |
