Abstract
The rural development become at present more a more a global priority which is considered to be more than a simple rural policy. The starting point of our analysis is the European model and the American model for the rural development. Another part of the article is focused on European Union (EU) rural development policy 2007-2013 and on supporting the implementation of its strategies and programs. It can be said that the Small and Medium Enterprises sector is the key of “the triple” of the rural durable development: economic, social, environment. Therefore in our paper we analyze the evolutions from the Romanian sector of SMEs, especially the rural SMEs, in comparison with the situation from EU countries, taking into consideration the requirements of a rural durable development. In this context, a major role in the Romanian rural development is played by the investment and financing, including the structural European funds.
