Agrarian Reform and Resistance in an Age of Globalisation: The Euro-American World and Beyond, 1780-1914 de Joe Regan

Agrarian Reform and Resistance in an Age of Globalisation: The Euro-American World and Beyond, 1780-1914: Routledge Studies in Modern History

Editat de Joe Regan, Cathal Smith
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2020
This book investigates the causes and effects of modernisation in rural regions of Britain and Ireland, continental Europe, the Americas, and Australasia between 1780 and 1914. In this period, the transformation of the world economy associated with the Industrial Revolution fuelled dramatic changes in the international countryside, as landowning elites, agricultural workers, and states adapted to the consequences of globalisation in a variety of ways. The chapters in this volume illustrate similarities, differences, and connections between the resulting manifestations of agrarian reform and resistance that spread throughout the Euro-American world and beyond during the long nineteenth century.

Recenzii

'Much of the history of capitalism focuses on industry and on cities. This important volume brings agriculture back in, showing that many of the world historical changes of the nineteenth century were rooted in the global countryside and its transformations. Marx infamously described peasants as "sacks of potatoes." This volume instead shows how the laboring, organizing, suing, striking, and mobilizing of tenant farmers, sharecroppers, slaves and debt peons shaped global capitalism in decisive ways.'
