These models embody archetypes of the observed diversity, actors’ projects or new norms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA number of conceptual studies and case studies from France and other countries allow us to understand the interactions between these models (confrontation, complementarity, co-evolution, hybridisation, etc.), taking us well beyond the characterisation of their diversity and the evaluation of their relative performances. The coexistence and confrontation of these models build up their capacity for radical change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book asks original questions about the analytical framework, its methodological challenges and the expected outcomes for the support of agricultural and food development in rural and urban territories. It is intended for researchers, teachers, students and professionals interested in territorial development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePierre Gasselin, Sylvie Lardon, Claire Cerdan, Salma Loudiyi\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eDenis Sautier\u003c\/b\u003e are the scientific coordinators of this book.
