Tracing the way in which the agrarian myth has emerged and
re-emerged over the past century in ideology shared by populism,
postmodernism and the political right, the argument in this book is
that at the centre of this discourse about the cultural identity of
'otherness'/ 'difference' lies the concept of and innate
'peasant-ness'. In a variety of contextually-specific discursive
forms, the 'old' populism of the 1890s and the nationalism and
fascism in Europe, America and Asia during the 1920s and 1930s were
all informed by the agrarian myth. The postmodern 'new' populism
and the 'new' right, both of which emerged after the 1960s and
consolidated during the 1990s, are also structured discursively by
the agrarian myth, and with it the ideological reaffirmation of
peasant essentialism.
