The first explanation after facing “migration”- at the regional level- is rural to urban flow. Many rural settlements are going to decline from this population’s flow. But what we see recently is different. We can see reverse flow fem urban to rural that is related to the countries situation. Some of these flows are permanent. In some cases, this flow happens because of rural tourism, but in some countries like Iran, this flow is temporary. In Iran reverse migration to rural areas sometimes occurs with a new phenomenon, that called “second-home”. This flow involves all rural life aspects and it seems to have a positive effect on the rural decline. So in this thesis, we want to measure second-homes influences on Alamut rural areas and suggesting a spatial approach for it. we used factors that extractions from literature, semi-structured interviews from eight villages in east Alamut, Qazvin province, for this study. According to spatial planning’s framework, SWOT for analyzing filed-visit, interview results and QSPM matrix for measuring second-homes effects and prioritizing strategies.
Results show that our rural second-homes have positives effects and people have a good relationship with owners because owners are natives. In economics, it made some temporal and seasonal occupation situations, that must of these opportunities are lesser skilled and services jobs. by destroying gardens and farmlands, second-homes change rural landscapes. Some effects like using more than the environment’s capacity, increasing land price, imbalance in house right, farmlands dealing and encouraging young people to migrate, are the long term effects. So because of the relation between rural life’s skeleton, this phenomenon may be shaking rural life structures. In the end second-home maybe make a chance for some people that they want to escape from urban living conditions, but what they do destroys life structure in another society.
