What role did the agricultural sector play in the economic crash of
1929? Taking evidence from country cases across Europe and the
Americas, this edited volume explores short-, medium- and long-
term perspectives on the primary sector. The monograph brings
together the voices of an international panel of contributors who
examine issues such as falling prices, industrial production,
unemployment and the stagnation of aggregate demand. Together, they
frame the interwar period as a pivotal turning point in the decline
of subsistence agriculture and the growth of agricultural
subsidies, which remain a key policy tool in many economies today.
This illuminating book will be of interest to advanced students and
researchers in economic history, agricultural history,
globalization and economic development.
