Between the 1930s and the 1950s rural life in Europe underwent
profound changes, partly as a result of the Second World War, and
partly as a result of changes which had been in progress over many
years. This book examines a range of European countries, from
Scandinavia to Spain and Ireland to Hungary, during this crucial
period, and identifies the common pressures to which they all
responded and the features that were unique to individual
countries. In particular, it examines the processes of agricultural
development over western Europe as a whole, the impact of the war
on international trading patterns, the relationships between states
and farmers, and the changing identities of rural populations. It
presents a bold attempt to write rural history on a European scale,
and will be of interest not only to historians and historical
geographers, but also to those interested in the historical
background to the Common Agricultural Policy of the European Union,
to which the changes discussed here provided a dramatic prologue.
