Building Rural Community Resilience Through Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Drawing from empirical analyses, case studies, and a synthesis of best practices, this book explores how innovation manifests itself in rural places and how it contributes to entrepreneurial development and resilience.Innovation in rural places may come about as a result of new forms of collaboration; policies that leverage rural assets and address critical service or product gaps; novel strategies for accessing financial capital; infusion of arts into aspects of community life; and cultivation of networks that bridge entrepreneurs, organizations, and institutions.The chapters illustrate how a number of innovation-related characteristics relate to economic vibrancy in rural places such as a strong connection to the arts, adaptive and sustainable use of natural resources, value-chain integrated food systems, robust bridging social capital networks, creative leveraging of technology, and presence of innovation-focused entrepreneurs.Through exploration of these and other topics, this book will provide insights and best practices for rural community and economic development scholars and practitioners seeking to strengthen the rural innovation ecosystem.

Everyday Life-Environmentalism : Community Sustainability and Resilience in Asia
This book provides one of the first systematic introductions to the Japanese concept of life-environmentalism, Seikatsu-Kankyo Shugi.This concept emerged in the 1980s as a shared research framework among Japanese social scientists studying the adverse consequences of postwar industrialization on everyday life in communities. Life-environmentalism offers a lens through which the agency of small communities in sustaining their everyday life and living environment can be understood.The book provides an overview of this approach, including intellectual backgrounds and foundational concepts, along with a variety of empirical case studies that examine environmental and sustainability issues in Japan and other parts of Asia.It also includes critical reflections on the approach in light of contemporary sustainability challenges.The empirical topics covered in the book include local community responses to development projects, resource governance, disaster response and recovery, and historical environmental preservation.The chapters are contributed by researchers working at the forefront of the field.It provides only a glimpse into the vast literature that awaits further exploration and engagement in the future. The book is suitable for upper undergraduate students, graduate students, and researchers interested in environmental problems, sustainability and resilience, disaster mitigation and response, and regional development in Asian contexts, particularly Japan.It is well-suited for courses in anthropology, geography, sociology, urban and regional planning, political science, Asian studies, and environmental studies.

What is a cluster of veins?
A cluster of veins refers to a group of veins that are closely located and interconnected within a specific area of the body. These veins work together to transport deoxygenated blood back to the heart. The cluster of veins may be found in various parts of the body, such as the legs, arms, or abdomen, and they play a crucial role in maintaining proper circulation and blood flow. When these veins become enlarged or twisted, they can lead to conditions such as varicose veins.

'How to conduct a cluster analysis manually?'
To conduct a cluster analysis manually, you would start by selecting a dataset and identifying the variables you want to use for clustering. Then, you would calculate the distance or similarity between each pair of data points using a chosen distance metric such as Euclidean distance. Next, you would use a clustering algorithm, such as k-means or hierarchical clustering, to group the data points into clusters based on their similarities. Finally, you would evaluate the results and potentially iterate on the process by adjusting the parameters or distance metric to achieve the desired clustering outcome.
