Search for: [Abstract = "Rural areas have been traditionally perceived as space dominated by agriculture. However, especially since the World War II a sinking importance of agriculture for the economy, employment and even identity building could be observed. This has occurred both in developed capitalist and post\-socialist countries. The purpose of this article is to discuss the character of present rural economies of developed countries \(and especially Visegrad countries\) with a particular attention to other than acricultural and tourism economic industries. Key factors influencing the growth of jobs in non\-farming and tourism sectors are analysed and on this basis the conditions for entrepreneurship in rural areas in the era of the knowledge economy are re\-evaluated."]
