About the Author

Heikki Jussila, University of Oulu, Finland. I have done research in the issues of rural development and northern issues since I have joined the group of researchers doing research on the issues of marginality within the framework of IGU. During the past years I have been the secretary of the IGU Commission that had the task to investigate the issues of marginality. During that period I have edited together with Prof. Majoral, Prof. Mutambirwa, Prof. Delgado-Cravidao and Prof. Leimgruber four books regarding the issues of marginality in global context. All these have been published by Ashgate, the first with Prof. Majoral and Leimgruber was an Avebury publication. Prof. Majoral University of Barcelona, Spain, has been doing research on the issues of marginality in Spain. Her work has concentrated in defining and delimiting the phenomenon in Spain.
