Around the fringe of Europe lies a green ring of countries which
have followed different pathways into modernity from the industrial
core of the continent and have, until recently, been characterized
by a strong agrarian presence in their politics, economy and
culture. This book brings together case studies from both the
post-socialist countries and EU member states which make up the
green ring to compare experiences of rural and agricultural groups.
It provides a fascinating opportunity to identify similarities and
contrasts in the ways in which these countries have managed their
rural areas when faced with the challenges set by
industrialization, political integration and globalization. The
book focuses on agrarian transformation as de- (and sometimes re- )
peasantization - referring to the changing economic, social,
cultural and political positions of farmers and food production
workers. It also problematizes the standard rural models and opens
up discussion of the problems these models pose for the farmers of
the green ring countries.
