The binary division of rural and urban is questioned through a dialectical/relational approach to settlement formation while settlement is defined by relation to (human) movement itself understood as incorporating the modalities of migration and mobility. By focusing on the socio-economics of increasing affluence the advance of capital generally and the introduction of neoliberalism into agriculture in particular a number of contemporary rural-oriented (migratory/mobility) movements and living structures' are investigated which taken together suggest a growing development of dual settlement' and multiplace hybrid' life. The paper concludes with a typology of villages and some thoughts on the theoretical implications of this study.
