Ruralism

Ruralism refers to a cultural and social mindset that values rural life, traditions, and landscapes. It emphasizes a connection to the countryside, agriculture, and a slower pace of living, often highlighting qualities like community, sustainability, and a closer relationship with nature. Ruralism can influence art, literature, and politics by promoting rural identities and perspectives, often in contrast to urban modernity. While it celebrates rural heritage, it can also advocate for preserving rural environments and lifestyles amidst changing societal trends.
