Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The commodification of rural spaces signifies to utilize the regional resources found in rural spaces for various purposes. This study clarifies the role that the commodification of rural spaces has played in sustaining farming and rural areas and promoting the coexistence of urban and rural areas in British Columbia, Canada mainly based on our field surveys. There are regional differences in the way of commodifying rural resources, which reflect physical conditions, accessibility to metropolitan centers, and local agricultural activities. These differences are also due to the temporal variations of consumers' activities in the time scale of daily, weekly, yearly and lifetime, while reflecting the difference in such spatial scales as local, metropolitan, provincial, national and global. The commodification of rural spaces, which is much more advanced than that of Japan, plays an important role in promoting the symbiotic relationships between urban and rural areas in British Columbia.
