This is a fascinating insight into some of the most important
thinking of the industrial revolution in Israel. Technological
revolution, rapid industrialization and higher levels of
productivity all drew more and more people from the agricultural
workforce and new ideas were needed to combat this serious loss of
labour. At the time this book was first published, Professor
Halperim's had somthing new and original to offer. He argued that
agriculture could be combined with industry without undermining
that age-old social asset, the village community, and bring it into
line with changing conditions. As he predicted the development of
areas comprising a score or more of villages, ranging around
non-agriculture has been preserved, and rural society has continued
to exist although it has assumed different forms. The name proposed
by the author for this new formation is Agrindus, as it expresses
the integration of AGRiculture and INDUStries.
