This monograph analyzes the developments in rural life in detail and at the same time places them in a wider context, exploring the strengths and weaknesses of theoretical writings on modern agriculture. What is revealed is a profound transformation in the rationality of farming, one which touches every aspect of the lives of rural people.
Jeff Pratt teaches anthropology at the University of Sussex, and has been conducting research in central Italy since 1970. His previous publications on Italy include studies of political and ideological processes, both at the local and the national level.
