Abstract：Rural economic transformation is an integral aspect of rural development and a significant research domain within the field of rural restructuring and transformation. Drawing upon human geographical concepts such as place, scale, and space, this paper focuses on three key dimensions: "urban-rural" "globallocal" and "agglomeration-dispersion". By integrating relevant theories from Western rural geography and economic geography, it comprehensively examines the changes in the rural economy of developed countries in the West during the process of globalization. Results show that the paradigm of "productionism/postproductionism" assumes a sequential progression from a less developed to a more advanced stage in rural economic transformation, yet fails to effectively capture its intrinsic characteristics. The rural economic transformation, viewed through the lens of human geography, should be considered as a synchronic spatial process involving interactions between various countries and regions on a global scale. This paper initially establishes an initial cross-scale framework covering micro local, meso regional (between urban and rural areas), and macro global (between different countries and regions) for rural economic transformation analysis, with a specific focus on comprehensively assessing the impact of relevant factors across all scales and understanding the intricate transmission dynamics between different scales. This framework serves as a solid foundation for future research endeavors aimed at investigating specific issues pertaining to rural economic transformation.
