Description
Summary:The present paper approaches rural spaces with a critical territory-based thinking, exposing the rural space definition intertwined with its implications from a territorial perspective in social inferences. By means of a practical experience, important discernments about the public space in rural areas originate. It is considered that the strategies and definitions developed in the urban space cannot be applied in the rural context, since both spaces present differences that are not only morphological. We propose the recovery of rural spaces as an intangible asset by means of its reinterpretation through its territorial ancestral references. In this way, we plan to begin the discussion about the importance of understanding the social, economic, political, cultural, legal, and geographic dynamics from rural territory in order to generate strategies focused on integral and reciprocal development.
