The (Im)possibilities of Repopulation: How Supply‐Side Factors Hinder the Revitalisation of Vacant Houses in Rural Mountain Regions

open access: yesThe Geographical Journal, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Industrialisation has reshaped European rural areas, leading to both depopulation and, in some cases, lifestyle‐driven repopulation. Our research highlights supply‐side barriers to Alpine repopulation by unpacking the impossibilities of vacant farmhouses revitalisation. Both land transfer traditions ingrained over generation (micro‐level
