摘要

The above shows that infrastructure development in urban and rural areas as well as linking urban and rural areas is one of the core elements of urban and rural poverty alleviation. Nowadays, poverty is understood as a condition that has three related aspects: "income poverty", "access poverty" and "power poverty". The alleviation of income poverty can only be sustainable, if the poor themselves initiate and sustain the income-generating activity. However, in order to be able to seize the economic opportunity, the poor need access to essential infrastructure and services and a supportive environment that includes pro-poor laws and regulations. The participation of the poor in decision-making that directly affects their lives and livelihoods is necessary to bring about this supportive environment. Using rural-urban linkages for poverty alleviation means strengthening the links through a more balanced distribution of political power between urban and rural areas and an improved capacity to seize economic opportunities in a globalizing economy . The empowerment of rural communities is part of the process of decentralization, the redistribution of government function to lower levels of government, the move towards good governance and the growing emphasis on community participation in decision-making. Within the globalizing economy where free-trade principles reign, economic development of regions that include both urban and rural areas requires opening the region through infrastructure and service development, in particular markets, roads and transport. This will facilitate the marketing of rural products and it will support local economic development in the urban centres. However, opening a region to the broader economy can have both positive and negative impacts. It will not only make it easier to move local products to the national and global market, but it will also make it easier for global products to enter the small urban centres and the rural areas and compete with local products. Therefore, capacity building of all stakeholders concerned needs to accompany the provision of infrastructure and services in the rural areas and in the small urban centres and between the rural areas and the urban centres. Farmers and other rural producers need to develop products that can compete in the open market in terms of price and quality as well as an entrepreneurial attitude. Small and medium-sized enterprises involved in trading or processing of products in the urban centres need to be able to compete in the market, and local governments need to create an economic environment in which the enterprises can prosper.
