“…The political and social discussion on temporary presence and absence involves pressing questions related to mobility, reasonable land consumption, affordable housing, new typologies for changing residential demands, social infrastructure, community life, sustainable tourism, living and working in rural regions, etc. (Greinke and Lange 2022).…”

“…Multi-local lifestyles do not cause broader societal and planning policy challenges related to spatial development in rural areas, compared to demographic changes, land consumption and urban sprawl, prevailing car-dependency and high traffic volumes, public livelihood support, social inequality, supply security and climate change. However, multi-locality can reinforce these challenges, which underscores its relevance for the spatial and regional planning sciences, as well as for municipal officials, policymakers and civil society (Greinke and Lange 2022). The challenges for regional planning have only recently been analysed in a few studies particularly addressing rural areas Di Marino and Lapintie 2020;Greinke and Hilti 2019;Neuböck et al 2019).…”

This new volume of European Academy of Land Use and Development (EALD) contains broad view and interdisciplinary peer reviewed articles that inform the reader of most recent scientific investigations in Land Management. The spectrum of contributions cover: regulations, governance and implementation of land management along with assessment of relevant data. Some of the key highlights include various scientific and practical approaches, applied methods and systems together with a discussion and understanding of the government’s role in various European countries. Committed to sustainability, the articles entailed give evidence to Europe as an experimental ground for land management issues as well as allows for collaboration in pursuit of best practices.

“…Multilocality, however, can be motivated (or forced) by work, family, care or ownership related to reasons leading to a myriad of different types of spatial and temporal mobilities that can have very different types of consequences on the rural and urban areas and on urban-rural relations (Gorman-Murray & Bissell, 2018;Pitkänen & Strandell, 2018). Particularly in rural areas, the alternating temporal presence and absence of multi-locals can be pronounced, leading to accumulated changes in local communities and the social, economic and environmental sustainability (Greinke & Lange, 2022;Rannanpää et al, 2022). This article focuses mostly on multi-locality related to rural second homes owned and used by people permanently living outside the rural localities.…”

Emergent rural–urban relations in Covid‐19 disturbances: Multi‐locality affecting sustainability of rural change

2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The recent Covid-19 pandemic highlighted rural-urban interactions, in particular the fact that cities are dependent on the accessibility of non-metropolitan and rural spaces and vice versa. This article seeks to understand how these interactions contributed to emergent relational spaces of rurality during the Covid-19 crisis. The article analyses politicised mobilities between localities and rural-urban linkages that are tied to the sustainability of rural change. The study focuses on two countries: Estonia and Finland, exploring thematic narratives on second-home practices and related politics during the outbreak of the Covid-19 crisis. The explored regions were the South Savo region in Finland and the island of Saaremaa and northern coastal villages in Estonia. The analysis indicates ways in which the mobility restrictions and disturbances triggered by the Covid-19 pandemic attributed certain demands and hopes to rural areas and led the shift in rural-urban interactions. The article contributes to the understanding of coexistences between im/mobilities and multi-local living and sustainability in rural change.

“…Recent developments on digital multilocality (Di Marino & Lapintie, 2018;Greinke & Lange, 2022) highlighted the importance of cyclicality of work between the central office workplace and private peripheral workplace since alternating between both increases work efficiency (Bürgin et al, 2021). Nevertheless, although the work-from-home arrangement reduces stress and increases general productivity, it is also true that the excessive exposure of work activities to everyday life may threaten the overall well-being since the isolation from supportive co-workers may counteract the positive effects of working from home (George et al, 2021).…”

The Covid-19 pandemic has rapidly altered the habits and lifestyles of every citizen worldwide and will have effects in the medium to long terms. The need for 'social distancing' has negatively affected urban areas and encouraged a rescheduling of working methods. Knowledge-intensive activities have been massively undertaken on a large scale in remote working, mainly carried out at home. Within this context, the paper explores the changes in working modalities towards remote working by focusing on the Lombardy region in north-west Italy. Specifically, it explores the renewed suitability of the municipalities outside the regional capital city of Milan with regard to remote workers during the pandemic and compares it with the period before the pandemic, and also it analyses which determinants play a role. The results show that municipalities closer to Milan with a strong broadband connection, a high concentration of knowledge workers and foreign immigrants are more suitable for hosting remote workers.
