This book brings together analysis on the conditions of
agricultural sectors in countries and regions of the world's
peripheries, from a wide variety of international contributors. The
contributors to this volume proffer an understanding of the
processes of agricultural transformations and their interaction
with the overall economies of Africa, Asia and Latin America.
Looking at the nineteenth and twentieth centuries - the onset of
modern economic growth - the book studies the relationship between
agriculture and other economic sectors, exploring the use of
resources (land, labour, capital) and the influence of
institutional and technological factors in the long-run performance
of agricultural activities. Pinilla and Willebald challenge the
notion that agriculture played a negligible role in promoting
economic development in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries,
when the impulse towards industrialization in the developing world
was more impactful.
