Abstract: Historicamente, hablar de economias o mercados de trabajo rurales ha supuesto, en el plano conceptual, adscribirlos a una escala territorial estatica, cerrada, dependiente. Este articulo, desde una perspective que privilegia el ambito economico y laboral, intenta poner de manifiesto como la ruralidad espanola se ha desterritorializado al tiempo que acentualdo el localismo; como, ademas, ha gloabalizado y homogeneizado algunos de sus rasgos a la vez que se ha incrementado la disparidad de situaciones de situaciones que en ella se pueden encontrar. Con ese fin se describe de que manera el medio rural ha transformado, diversificado y complejizado su base material mientras, de forma interrelacionada, han ido adquuiriendo cada vez mas importancia los aspectos inmateriales y simbolicos en la economia. Todo ello, se plantea, es fruto de los procesos de desagraarizacion y reestructuracion, de las politicas estatales de acento territorial, asi como de la integracion y la semantizacion economica...Rurality has been traditionally defined as a close, static and subordinate reality. This picture, however, is no longer accurate. Spanish countryside has been transformed, diversified and has become increasingly complex. From the economic and labour market points of view, it can be argued that Spanish rurality has get rid of territorial burdens, while localism has increased at the same time; furthermore, Spanish rurality has become more global and homogeneous in some aspects, but more diverse in others. Therefore. this article looks at the consequences of desagrarization and restructuring processes that have taken place within Spanish ruraliy. It also takes into account the territorial approaches of public polies. Finally, it considers the embeddedness and strengthening of symbolic values within Spanish rural economy.
