Between the knowledge and power negotiation dynamics of all the actors involved (from winemakers to farmers, local authorities and other stakeholders like local cooperatives) there is a need to question if the current rural development strategies based on local food qualification schemes under Geographical Indications (GIs) are being implemented towards the extended development of the region, the local community and therefore to the full protection of wine terroir(3) on a broader sense than only origin and quality. This comes along with recent renewed interest on the notion of terroir, where discussions emerged about the preservation/re-creation of terroir on the ongoing process of history and the discussion on the extent of GIs capacity to protect terroir as history, heritage or "patrimoine."(4) Nemea (Greece) and Basto (Vinho Verde region, Portugal) are two high quality wines regions under the protection of labels of origin commonly under the framework of GIs. Recent discussions have emerged on the re-construction of local/traditional knowledge and thus on the re-construction of both regions wine terroir, that are related with challenges to the development of the regions between the preservation of localness (implicit on the protection by labels of origin) and the threats of deterritorialization.

Connecting Rural Change and Local Crafts: Rebranding Sock Knitting in Yenikaraağaç Veryeri Alaca, Ilgım; Aktaş, Bilge Merve; Gürel, Burak (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 2019-12-31) Rural development literature has demonstrated that in modern times, farming alone is usually unable to provide sufficient returns to develop a rural economy and keep the processes of outmigration and aging of the rural population in check. The development of non-farm activities such as small-scale industries, handicrafts, and rural tourism has been recognized as an indispensable method of providing relatively sufficient income to villagers, preventing rural exodus, and maintaining a lively village culture w...
Local actors and sustainability in the kaz mountains region Şakar, Emre; Rittersberger Tılıç, Helga İda; Department of Sociology (2015) In this thesis, local actors and sustainability in the Kaz Mountains Region are examined from an actor-oriented approach. The prospects for sustainability are contingent on the positions of local actors in the fields such as agriculture, forest villages, the national park, ecotourism, and gold mining as well as on the interactions between local actors and environment in these fields. Thus, it is argued that sustainability is constituted by multiple socio-economic and socio-ecological dynamics taking place o...
