How do we follow affects in places? And how do they follow us? How can rural places be described as affective places? Considering local and global transformations and crises, this book examines the how of culture in rural areas. It delves into everyday stories and natural-cultural landscapes in three rural regions of Germany. On the basis of concrete places and institutions, traces and practices of cultural education are also followed; it becomes obvious that rural regions are not Wastelands. They offer a wealth of affective places to be experienced and lived out. This ethnographic collage brings together vignettes, photo essays and reflections at the interface of affect theory, sensory ethnography, artistic research and feminist new materialism. Digitally available audios and videos add to the picture.
