“…In the literature there are numerous discussions about a suitable definition for rural areas. This discussion is also reflected in Denmark (see e.g., Fertner, 2012;Johansen and Nielsen, 2012;Kristensen et al, 2006). However, the OECD typology offers a broad classification of regions as predominantly rural, intermediate or predominantly urban, which we find useful.…”

This article examines the growing interest in local food by focusing on local food networks. The objective is to explore what factors drive or hinder the development of local food networks in rural Denmark. For this purpose, we have combined three bodies of theory: local food networks; entrepreneur networks; and the experience economy. This provides a valuable contribution to the current discourse on local food networks, as it introduces a novel framework to investigate the localisation of food dynamics. The article presents an explorative, case-based investigation of three Danish local food networks. The findings demonstrate that the main drivers of the development of local food networks are the pursuance of transparency and knowledge of origin, the existence of entrepreneurship potential, the coordination of networks by means of joint strategies, and the overcoming of conflict patterns. However, these factors can also be barriers to further development of local food networks. Hence, strategies for developing local food networks must be sensitive to their individual needs and conditions.

The objective of the article was to update Tarde's approach by directing attention to the rural space and the concept of rural imitation. It analyses an empirical study of people settling in five Danish rural areas using Tarde's key concepts of imitation and monads. Mixed methods were employed, including surveys, participant observation and photoethnographic interviews. The data analysis applied the grounded theory approach to add a structural dimension to Tarde's approach. The analysis revealed that Tarde's approach and his key concepts of imitation and monads can be used to develop contemporary perspectives on rural experiences. The pivotal point in the rural -urban relationship is the ability to be in contact with an identity constructed from decisions about specific emotional states and a sense of the present. Within a broader perspective, this view of identity building based on rural settlement in nature calls for attention to health studies regarding how nature is associated with coping and how it can help relieve stress, one of contemporary society's most common ailments. The analysis suggests the existence of a triangle of monads in contemporary rural imitation. This triangle of monads is what stabilises, reproduces and supports the creation of rural identities.

“…Un concepto ampliamente extendido es el que se refiere a la idea de un territorio y de una identidad compartida (Johansen & Nielsen, 2012) a partir de la cual se determina el grado de cohesión que tienen diversos grupos en un marco de espacio-tiempo. Sin embargo, más allá del ámbito territorial, el concepto de comunidad remite al establecimiento de vínculos de proximidad y emotividad, en los que además de interdependencia entre los individuos, existe un consenso internalizado de acercamiento que rebasa la agregación (Subirats, 2003).…”
