Family Business Performance and Succession

Within the context of the new ruralities reshaped by globalization processes, some educated women decide to stay at the countryside, where they develop their own life projects.It is a relatively new phenomenon, taking into account the steady process of female migration from rural areas that has taken place in Spain for decades.Through indepth interviews we attempt to set out how rural women perceive themselves and assess rurality in two Spanish regions, Catalonia and Galicia.Women's critical perceptions of the new ruralities become a mirror for younger (female) generations.
