Rural Poverty and the Urban Crisis: A Strategy for Regional Development

By Niles M. Hansen

This work discusses rural poverty and the resulting migration to large cities that it frequently fosters as this pattern affects areas all across America. The special needs of such groups as Indians and Mexican Americans are considered in detail. Proposed solutions to the problems of rural poverty--rural industrialization, the creation of intermediate-size cities, the relocation of labor--are also analyzed.
