They served not merely as a description of rural hygiene, but also signalled a change in perceptions of the urban versus the rural. Urban spaces were regarded unhealthy and even a threat to national well-being in the lniddle of the nineteenth century but the countryside increasingly attracted attention as a defective environment. Physicians, philanthropists, travellers and politicians alike provided evidence on the poor state of hygiene in rural areas compared with urban ones. Mortality figures seelned to deliver the final proof: nineteenth century European countries tended to have lower rural than urban death rates but this was reversed during the first half of the twentieth century. Concern over such changes became international in scope, as illustrated by the League of Nations ' investigation of living conditions and health standards in rural Europe during the 1920s and by its sponsorship of the international rural health conferences in Geneva and Budapest in 1931.","PeriodicalId":299529,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Regional and Local Studies","volume":"2011 16","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114087374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The issue attracted attention at levels from the local to the international. To begin with, Spain was overwhelmingly still a lural society. According to the census of 1920, 17.3 million people lived in rural areas cOlnpared with 4 lnillions in the main cities.2 However, official statistics restricted definitions of the urban to provincial capitals, thereby exaggerating this in1balance and Inaking still1nore problelnatic the differentiation of urban and lural populations. Second, the process of health transition seen in Inany European countries over the second half of the nineteenth century was delayed in Spain, where cholera, smallpox and other infectious diseases were often prevalent and rates of general and child Inortality were high.3 Subject to considerable local diversity, the experience in Spain broadly coincided with the MeditelTanean lnodel, with trends in vital rates intennediate between Italy and POliugal, for exan1ple. Third, late-nineteenth century presumptions about rural health and its evident advantages, in ten11Sof life expectancy and n10rtality, eroded with the virtual disappearance of 'the urban penalty' by the early 1930s.","PeriodicalId":299529,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Regional and Local Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115490876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim was to produce, on a uniform basis, an accurate picture of medical provision across the state and to survey some of the features considered of particular relevance to health. Responsibility for undertaking this survey was assigned to the 284 stateappointed district doctors (Gerichtsiirzte), who supervised the medical administration of every urban (Stadtgericht) and rural (Landgericht) district in Bavaria, and each of the topographies (Physikatsberiehte) was to be completed according to a standardised format. Physicians were required to report first on the physical geography of their district, its climate and the predominant types of cultivation to be found there. They were also to include details concerning the sowing and harvest times of the principal crops as well as a catalogue of those naturally occurring products, such as natural spring waters, minerals or flora, deemed to be of medical significance. In accordance with the prevailing Hippocratic influence of the time, particular emphasis was placed on features such as the prevailing winds, the extent of climatic fluctuations and the amount of low-lying or marshy ground.","PeriodicalId":299529,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Regional and Local Studies","volume":"120 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122473319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This state of affairs is often linked with the post-war 'social-democratic order', although its history can be traced back at least to the early twentieth century. There was no mid-nineteenth century common national health policy nor equal access to health care for urban and rural populations, but these featured as political aims and eventually, albeit slowly and to varying degrees, as social realities. This article deals with the rationale behind such developments, notably the national improvement in access to health services in rural districts and the emergence of a centrally shaped public health policy. The resulting impact upon the health of the population is not our main focus, although the new policies did affect the majority of the population. In 1865 only 20% of people lived in cities, towns or what were defined as densely populated districts, compared with approximately 38% in 1910. Not until the 1940s did roughly one-half of the population live in urban surroundings, even when urban space was defined as 'places having at least 200 inhabitants' and with no more than 50 metres between the houses. 1","PeriodicalId":299529,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Regional and Local Studies","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131075734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although, for the most part, the responses were non-violent they tended to be disruptive.2 One group whose anti-colonialisln is well-known, but which relnains to be fully understood is the African intelligentsia.3 As a group, the African intelligentsia served as agents of creolization, social and economic change, cultural transmission, Euro-Christianity, and political transformation. Their cOlnposite anti-colonialism took the fom1 of petitions and delegations; trade unionism; strikes and boycotts; counter hegemonic intellectual activities in the form of poetry, novels, historical writings; and the use of indigenous newspapers as a political platform.4 The period 1912-1920 witnessed two major stresses of colonial rule in the Gold Coast whose exigencies in turn intensified the African intelligentsia's anti-colonial protest politics that had begun in the late nineteenth century. One stress, the focus of the present study, was the vigorous ilnplementation of indirect rule, that is, the colonial policy of using the African political elite, specifically the chiefs, as the main agents of local administration.5 The other strain, that has ganlered considerable scholarly attention and hence does not fonn a part of the present study, is the wartime policies of labour mobilization, military recruitn1ent, and the InaxiInization of economic resources of the colony in support of the imperial war effort. 6","PeriodicalId":299529,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Regional and Local Studies","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134019821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
