- W2551201279 abstract "The objective of the present paper is to compare the situation, characteristics and problems of rural regions to that of border regions, identifying common features and development opportunities. First the concept of rural regions is discussed with an overview of the economic characteristics, the problems of accessibility and peripherality are outlined. Then the specifi c features of border regions are assessed with regard to the character of the border and its impacts on the quality of life in the region. The evolution of the European territorial cooperation is overviewed briefl y pointing out the future prospects and backgrounds of interregional and transboundary cooperation. Finally the rural development opportunities of border regions are discussed relying on common endowments and complementarities of the neighbouring areas. In the EU-25 rural areas represent most of the total territory and more than half of the population. Rural development policy seeks to establish a coherent and sustainable framework for the future of Europe’s rural areas. In its early days, rural development policy was essentially sectoral (dealing mainly with agricultural structures) with limited territorial aspects. Agenda 2000 established rural development policy as the second pillar of the EU’s CAP. Besides agricultural restructuring, it addressed environmental concerns and the wider needs of rural areas, focusing on a stronger agricultural and forestry sector, the improvement of the competitiveness of rural areas, and the maintenance of the environment and preservation of Europe’s rural heritage. The aims of the new Rural Development policy for the period 2007-2013 have been simplifi ed and clarifi ed around three clearly defi ned economic, environmental and territorial objectives: (1) improving the competitiveness of agriculture and forestry; (2) improving the environment and the countryside; (3) improving the quality of life in rural areas and encouraging diversifi cation of economic activity. Rural areas are generally associated with lower levels of quality of life, lower levels of incomes, less improved infrastructure and usually no access to agglomerational advantages of urban regions. These problems tend to be more aggravated with increasing distances from the central regions of the countries. Many of the rural areas suffer from the double burden of being underdeveloped and peripheral at the same time. The new European Territorial Cooperation objective may provide opportunities for rural border regions to create a development path relying on transboundary cooperation. 2. Rurality and peripherality In characterising rural areas the EU uses the OECD methodology, which is based on population density [7]. First, local units (e.g. municipalities) are identifi ed as rural if their population density is below 150 inhabitants per km 2" @default.
