This book aims at explaining the nature and strength of the links
between the families and their farms looking at their diversity
throughout the world. To do so, it documents family farming
diversity by using the sustainable rural livelihood (SRL) framework
exploring their ability to adapt and transform to changing
environments. In 18 case studies in Asia, Africa, Latin America and
Europe, it shows how family farms resist under adverse conditions,
seize new opportunities and permanently transform. Family farms,
far from being backwards are potential solutions to face the
current challenges and shape a new future for agriculture taking
advantage of their local knowledge and capacity to cope with
external constraints. Many co-authors of the book have both an
empirical and theoretical experience of family farming in developed
and developing countries and their related institutions. They
specify "what makes and means family" in family farming and the
diversity of their expertise draws a wide and original picture of
this resilient way of farming throughout the world.
