Managing Rural Policy in a Federal System of Government

Winthrop Rockefeller

Rural America/ Rural Development Perspectives, 1993, vol. 09, issue 01

Abstract: Lack of coordination within the Federal Government and among the Federal, State, and local governments has led to ineffective rural development policy. Federal departments each pursue their own version of rural policy, which may sometimes duplicate and conflict with other departments' efforts. Effective national policy must achieve strong Federal-State-local government collaboration and must include rural communities' and the private sector’s input in decisionmaking.
