This paper reviews attempts to integrate the concept of sustainable rural development into the thinking of the global economic institutions (for example the World Bank and the IMF), and global policy makers. What does the concept mean at the local level, and what is understood at the international level? Is there any common ground? What role do the global economic institutions play in the process of developing, and implementing this concept?
