Introduction:
Shaping the New Political Economy
of Advanced Capitalist Agriculture
William H. Friedland
with the assistance of
Frederick H. Buttel and Alan P. Rudy

This book originated in a miniconference held during the 50th


Anniversary meeting of the Rural Sociological Society in Madison,
Wisconsin in August 1988. The. reasons that miniconference on political
economy was held in conjunction with the annual meeting of a sociological
society will be explained later in this chapter.
This introduction begins by explaining the origin of the volume's title
and, in so doing, explores the reasons for the Madison miniconference.
This is followed by an historical discussion of theoretical analysis of agri-
culture in populist and marxist circles and the relationship of marxist ana-
lyses to the agrarian, peasant, and colonial questions. This discussion will
reveal a major hiatus in the analysis of agriculture by marxist writers.
Next, the developments of the f970s are examined by chronicling how
a new generation of neopopulist rural sociologists and neo-marxist scholars
in the U.S. "rediscovered" agriculture. This rediscovery led to the emer-
gence of a new disciplinary sub-field, the sociology of agriculture. The
formulation of this field took place in parallel with similar developments

I am grateful for helpful comments and suggestions from Jim O'Connor.

Introduction

among European scholars. Scholars from other disciplines such as


anthropology,
social and oral history, economics, and geography have also
contributed
to the new sub-field. These developments, in turn, led participants to

begin referring to their common activity as the political economy of


agriculture.
The ways in which the field has emerged over the last two decades is
then examined. The discussion thai turns to a consideration of the
intellectual
substance of the new political economy of agriculture, assessing die
parameters of the field and some of the topical areas that are emerging but
which were not encompassed in the Madison miniconference and, hence,
ate not included in this volume. This introductory chapter concludes with
a brief analysis of the chapters of this book according to the way they are

organized in the volume.

The New Political Economy of Capitalist Agriculture

Central to the chapters in this volume is that something

and, importantly, qualitatively stages
capitalist
agriculture. What can begenetically called the food sector has been
repeatedly and qualitatively transformed over the last sesquicentenaiy.
Most recently, the economic crisis of the early 1970s, a crisis substantially
a product of larger structural cycles within capitalism and, more specific to

agriculture, the Soviet-American grain deal, contributed to the final


emergence
of new national and international divisions of labor in all sectors of
the global economy, including agriculture. This coming forth of a global
food regime had been immanent for some time; its fruition resulted from
the conjunction of several crises in the early 1970s producing the final
1
emergence of a new, but still nascent, stage of global economy.
Related to the changes in global economies and agricultural
production,
something new is occurring in the analysis of agriculture, specifically
in the political economy of capitalist agriculture. As a result of the social
movements of the 1960s, coincident with the economic crises that began in
the 1970s, new populist and marxist critiques of capitalist agriculture began
to merge. Particularly within the marxist tradition, theoretical analysis of
agrarian social relations and die revolutionary character of peasantries has
a significant history. What has occurred with the new international

William Friedland

division(s) of labor in agriculture is the heightened search for a political


economic theory which explains the social and production relations of food
and agriculture since, as is stressed below, theorization of the peasantry,
rurality, and/or fanning is no longer adequate.
For better or worse, the critiques presented here are largely from the
industrialized nations of Europe and North America (though several
chapters address topics which encompass issues beyond the core capitalist
economies while two chapters [on technology and gender] draw heavily on
Third World-oriented literatures that have new implications for issues of
concern in the advanced capitalist world). Nonetheless, within the
advanced industrial nations, neo-marxist analysis has become consolidated,
transforming social analysis and the analysis of agricultural social relations,
one result of which is the articles in this collection.
A key component of the new national and international relations in

agriculture, and central to the populist and neo-marxist critical theories, is


that the modern developments in agriculture are capitalist in character.
This means that the modern crisis of capitalist agricultural accumulation
must be placed in the context of historical transitions within all sectors of
the global capitalist economy. This is die transition from the national and
international relations associated with post-World War II U.S. hegemony
to the global economy now characterized by interrupted and increasingly
uneven accumulation (MacEwan and Tabb 1989 ; Gottdiener and Komninos
1989), by state fiscal crises (see O'Connor's [1973] pioneering analysis),
and by a realignment of economic power from the west eastward.
Analysis of capitalist social and production relations demands class
analysis, studies of capital accumulation via the exploitation of labor and
labor markets, and attention to localized developments in production and
reproduction as mediated reflections of global trends.
Finally, the political economy of new relations within global
capitalism
requires an examination of the transitions which began long before the
immediate historical era, from polyglot local farming practices to
concentrated
corporate-capitalist agricultural production. This movement from
rural farming to industrial agriculture is directly related to the development
of new productive practices and new economic formations within, and
outside,the food sector. Peasant production, simple commodity production
(i.e., fanning), and the "Fordist" (see Aglietta 1979; Lipietz 1987 ; lessop
1988; and Kenney et al. in this volume) extension of chemical and
mechanical agriculture across the globe have given way to a highly
industrialized
and capitalized food sector which utilizes generic inputs for the
production of durable foods. Simply put, the present situation is one in
which the connotations of "farming" -
in particular, rurality and
community,
but also other categories that are limited to national economies,
nation-states, and national societies are giving way to vertically and
-
horizontally integrated production, processing, and distribution of generic
inputs for mass marketable foodstuffs. These developments cannot be
encompassed by traditional analyses of agriculture neoclassical, populist,
-

and marxist -
and demand a new theoretical approach to political
economy,
an approach with which this volume seeks to grapple. The principal
theoretical variations emerging in the literature and major theoretical issues
at stake within the political economy of agriculture will then be discussed.

Populism and Marxism:


The Development of a Critical Agricultural Social Science

Capitalist economies experience cyclical crises. While it has not been


possible to suggest that agricultural production has approached full
capitalization
until recently, agricultural markets have long experienced cyclical
crises, mostly associated with overproduction (Berlan 1989; Ehrensaft
1980). These crises have periodically resulted in radicalized politics most
often associated with populism, and less often with marxism, depending on
the political traditions of particular regions and nations.
In this context, since the 1880s, populism's power has been embodied
in its ability to mobilize people in persistent, if erratic, social movements,
oftenagrarian in character. The weakness of populism has been its failure
toproduce an enduring and useful theoretical analysis (though, typified by
Rodefeld et al [1978] and Strange [1989] much of the more sophisticated
,

work in this genre has undeniable utility).


Populist struggles generally undertake simple, usually local but
occasionally
capitalistdeveloping into regional and national, attacks on large-scale
enterprises, recognizing the damage monopolies of economic power
can do to specific communities. The strength of populism has been its

ability to identify processes of economic concentration within capitalism;


its failure has centered on an inability to grapple with fundamental
processes of capitalist development
-

i.e., class analysis, commodity


fetishism, uneven and combined development -
which has meant that its
movements, which re-surface phoenix-like with economic crises, have not
generated an enduring theoretical analysis. Rather, as each new form of
populism develops, a few theoreticians are generated to work with its more
populist practitioners yet without a coherent, long-lasting, analytic
paradigm.
teen
The history of marxist analyses of agriculture has very different,
although marxists have certainly ignored the development of agriculture in
advanced capitalist nations for too long. The mandan case varies from
that of populism if only because, historically, marxist analysis has focused
primarily on Europe and Asia rather than on the United States, where
populism has had a major home. More importantly, unlike populism,
marxist analysts had an early theoretical preoccupation with agriculture
-

although that preoccupation was not focused on agriculture per se.


Marx, himself, seeing the peasantry as a doomed class lost in the
stupefying parochial conditions of rural life, paid only sporadic attention to
2
agriculture. Instead, he concentrated his analytic powers on the industrial
proletariat of the nineteenth century. Despite Mane's distress at the
parochialism
of die peasantry and his emphasis on the proletariat, two classic
analyses of agriculture appeared early within the marxist tradition. The
first, Karl Kautsky's Die Agrarfrage (1988 [1899] The Agrarian -

Question)
was enormously influential in shaping the views

political
of the marxist
parties in die early 1900s. The second, V.I. Lenin's The Development
of Capitalism in Russia (1943a [1899]), while influential in Russia, did not
have a significant impact on marxist thinking outside of Russia until after
the Russian revolution of 1917, a revolution which elevated Lenin's
writings
into canon for several generations of marxists.3
While Kautsky's writing in Germany at the turn of the century in
effect "settled" die agrarian question for most marxists fa* the next seven
decades, in fact, neither he no- Lenin wrote their studies because they were
interested in agriculture in itself. It is only possible to understand how
agriculture, as a sphere of production, came to be studied by marxists by
considering the problematics that spurred the production of these two
now-classical studies of agriculture. 4

2
The attention Marx gave to agriculture far transcends the ubiquitous quotations
about "the idiocy of rural life" sad the likening of the peasantry to "a sack of potatoes."
For a thorough discussion of Marx's writings on agriculture and natural resources, see
Pcrelmsn 1990. Specifically, there were four major foci in Marx's analyses of
agriculture: (1) the expropriation of the peasantry as a basis for primitive accumulation
(especially in Capital Vol. 1, and Theories of Surplus Value; (2) an occasional
implication that independent peasant production of commodities exists outside the
capitalist mode of production (in Theories of Surplus Value); (3) the theory of ground
rent (in Capital Vols. 2 and 3); and (4) the (often misinterpreted) comment in The

Eighteenth Brumaire about the peasantry being like "a sack of potatoes."
3
Lenin was far more prolific in writing about agriculture and the peasantry than
Kautsky, a reflection of the industrial backwardness of Russia and the much greater
social importance of the Russian peasantry. See, for example, Lenin 1943 b (written in
1908 but not published until 1918), and 1943c [1903].
4
For a thorough analysis of the agrarian question in marxist circles in the early
stages of the development of marxist and socialist movements see Hussain and Tribe
1981. Volume 1 of this two-volume publication deals with "German Social Democracy
aid the Peasantry 1890-1907"; Volume 2 discusses "Russian Marxism and the
Peasantry 1861-1930."
Kautsky's Die Agrarfrage was published in 1899.5 This study
attempted to resolve an issue which had arisen within the German Social
Democratic Party as to the relationship of the German peasantry to social
democracy (i.e., the parliamentary road to socialist power). The debate
arose out of the rapid growth of the party and its successes in winning the

loyalty and adherence of the urban proletariat Some segments of the party
leadership were concerned that the structure of German politics would
preclude
the party from achieving political power unless the party's base was
broadened beyond the proletariat. In 1894, Georg von Vollmar and several
other German social-democrats suggested that the party begin the active
pursuit of a peasant following (Russell 196S: 152-163; Steenson 1981 :
181-188). It was as part of this debate, culminating in the abandonment of
the peasantry at the Breslau Congress in 189S, that Kautsky wrote what
later emerged as Die Agrarfrage.
Published only a decade after the legalization of the party, it should
be noted that the debate on the peasantry took place in the context of the
larger debate over what came to be known as revisionism (Steenson 1978 :
Chapter 4 83-131). Revisionists in the German Social Democratic Party
,

suggested that the growth and homogenization of the proletariat, and


therefore
the revolutionary importance that Marx and Engels had attributed to
the proletariat, were not taking place. 6 It was within the context of this
larger debate that Kautsky addressed his analysis of the peasantry, holding
it to be a class doomed to proletarianization, even if die process would
inevitably be protracted More specifically, Kautsky envisioned a continual
process by which capitalist economic relations would dominate peasant
production. Rather than a self-sufficient peasantry that would be
economically
strong and manifest political efficacy, Kautsky predicted the ultimate
demise of the class, With Germany's rapid industrialization and the
enormous
growth of its proletariat, his analysis proved to be largely correct
In Russia, Lenin's problematic developed around the question of
whether capitalism had established a sufficient base in Russian society.
Early Narodnik (populist) revolutionaries had formulated an analysis which
found that Russian capital was too feeble, and czarism too powerful, to

(Kautsky 1988 [1899]). Prior to this time, an early application by an American
socialist appeared several years after Kautsky'a publication (Simons 1903). The only
appearance of significant portions of Die Agrarfrage in English took the form of s
translation by Banaji in 1976 in Economy and Society (see also Btatfi 1980).

establish capitalism in Russia.7 Later, they saw the czarist state as Russia's
"main capitalist force," the creator and defender of the exploitative classes
which yielded a capitalism that was intrinsically parasitic and unstable
because of its dependence on foreign markets. The Narodniks nonetheless
held that it would be feasible to skip the capitalist stage of development
and make a direct transition to a socialist society based on traditional
socialistic forms (the Russian commune, or mir found among Russia's
peasantry).
Lenin, in company with other marxists of the time, in opposition to
the Narodnik analysis, argued that capitalism was already established in
Russia and was developing extensively despite its immediate weaknesses.
Lenin confronted a very different situation than did Kautsky: the sheer size
and weight of Russia's peasantry constituted a very different social
situation
from that of Germany since, by comparison, Russian capital and the
Russian proletariat woe minuscule. Concentrated in a handful of major
industrial locations and still rooted in its peasant background, Russia's
proletariat was only beginning to manifest feeble organizational capabilities
when Lenin addressed the development of capitalism in Russia.
Lenin therefore had a dual problematic. On the one hand, he had to
explain capitalist development in Russia; on the other, he had to come to
grips with what appeared to be the central role that Russia's peasantry
might play in the coming revolutionary struggle. The Development of
Capitalism
in Russia, written by Lenin while banished by the Czar to Siberia
in the late b and published in 1899, the same year that Kautsky's
work was published, represented Lenin's struggle with these problematics.
Reluctant to abandon the peasantry as a revolutionary force, Lenin
consideredthe political role of the peasantry in The Development..., as well as
in other analyses, as he struggled to resolve the vexing question of the
peasantry's relationship to the proletariat After all, had not Engels (1978
[1850]) written extensively on the question of peasant revolt?
Lenin's "resolution" had him at odds with many of his Social
Democratic
comrades. Rather than focusing his interests exclusively on the
proletariat, Lenin contended that the possibilities of a proletarian and
8
peasant revolutionary alliance should not be overlooked. This was a
position
to which he would adhere in a variety of writings for the better part

7
It should be recognized, however, as Shanin (1984 : 8) has stressed, that the
Narodniks were quite heterogeneous in composition and beliefs. It is mainly due to
Lenin's writings, in which he used the notion of populism to pertain to a handful of
texts, that the characterizations in this paragraph have come to represent the ostensibly
dominant tendencies in Russian populism.

8Strains of this position lasted through to his "Preliminary Draft of Theses on the
Agrarian Question" ( Lenin 1943e [1920JX in which he maintained that the dispossessed
agrarian strata could be a (partial) social base for revolutionary socialism.
of a decade before, finally, like Kautsky, turning exclusively to the
proletariat in the search of revolutionary energy.
The issue of the peasantry and agriculture
-
was effectively
-

"settled,"
at least until the Russian revolution of 1917, with the publication of
Die Agrarfrage, which quickly became a classic in Europe. This work was
translated into most European languages the sole major exception being
-

English. The basic analysis of Die Agrarfrage, which directed social


democratic energies away from the peasantry and maintained a focus on
the working class, was reinforced by the continual growth of the European
social democratic parties, their memberships, and their increased influence
in parliaments. This convinced most Social Democrats that Kautsky's
analysis was fundamentally correct that the peasants were not a
-

consequential
social class, that they were fated to be proletarianized, and that
agriculture would follow the general outlines and patterns of industry's
development. 9
After Kautsky's and Lenin's works "settled" the issue of the peasantry
and agriculture, part of the loss of interest by marxists in agriculture
resulted from the variety of other issues which arose with the development
of European capitalism and imperialism. As the European powers
established
colonial domination in Asia and Africa, imperialism and war
became major concerns for theorists such as Lenin (1943d [1916]).
The onset of the nrst world war caused the overnight collapse of the
social democratic discussion in the Second International (the European-dominated
social democratic international) on imperialism and war as the
various national parties supported their governments on entry into the war.
This created a new problematic for those socialists who opposed the war.
for them the question became, how to turn the imperialist war into a civil,
i.e., class, war? That discussion became of burning concern after February
1917 when, in Russia, a spontaneous and disorganized revolt brought down
the rotting carcass of czarism. From that time on, the issue of the Russian
revolution came to dominate marxist and socialist thinking.
With the Bolshevik success in November 1917, the question of the
peasantry (let alone agriculture) in the Soviet Union subsided. For die
next five years, it was widely believed that the Russian revolutionary
success
was accidental and, unless buttressed by revolutionary successes
elsewhere
in Europe, particularly in Germany, the Russian revolution could not
be sustained. By 1923, however the possibilities of a German or French
revolution had played themselves out. If the Russian revolution was to

It should be noted that the peasantry proved to be a pivotal base of electoral
support in several of the now-longstanding Nordic social democracies (Esping-Anderson
1985).
survive, support would have to come from other places. Enchanted by the

possibilities in China where political ferment continued after a spontaneous


revolution overthrew the corrupt Ching dynasty in 1911, Russia's
revolutionaries
turned their attention to the massive peasant societies of Asia.
Again the focus centered initially on the minuscule, if enormously
concentrated,
proletariat in China's cities. It was therefore left to a heretical Mao
Tse-Tung to articulate a new version of the abandoned Leninist (mentation
toward the peasantry. 10
After the collapse of theproletarian orientation in the massacre of
Shanghai workers by Chiang Kai-shek, Mao's analysis of class relations
in
peasant society, while paying little attention to agriculture as a sphere of
production in and of itself, proved to be a winner, although it took several

Traditional marxist theonzation, however, continued to emphasize


imperialism and colonialism and the underdevelopment of Asia's
economies rather than orient itself to the peasantry and agrarian social
relations,
though these last two "questions" generated some interest Thus, it

establishing an apparent revolutionary dualism: peasantries appeared to be


central to anticolonial and nationalist revolutions in "developing" countries,
whereas industrial proletarians were to continue to be the key to
revolutions
in core "developed" nations. In neither case, however, did agriculture
11
emerge as a problematic for marxist analysts.

10 Mao's two key writings on this topic were "Analysis of the Classes in Chinese
Society" (Mao 1967a [1926]) and "Report of Investigation on the Peasant
Movement in Hunan" (Mao 1967b [1927]). A fine historical account of the tortuous
process by which the peasant revolutionary orientation was developed in China will be
found in Selden (1971). Friedland et al. (1982: Chapter 3) presents a theoretical
discussion of the emergence of revolutionary theory encompassing the peasantry as a
driving force.
11
As an aside, a bizarre incident took place in the United States between 1928
and 1934 (Record 1951 : 60-71). Emphasizing the importance of the national and
colonial questions, Communist theoreticians introduced the notion that Negroes in the
U.S. south constituted a colony and, as a consequence, it was necessary for American
communists to advocate Negro rights to self-determination, s concept seen as leading to
the emergence of a distinctive Negro nation in the south. This formulation emphasized
The Agricultural Social Sciences in the U.S.:
The Abandonment and the Rediscovery of Agriculture

During the interwar years in the U.S.,


agricultural social and
productive
relations disappeared marxist problematic
as a rurality assumed
as was

to be peasant-like, a relationship believed to be well understood. But the


situation was hardly better in non-marxist social science. In the United
States, for example, at the same time that the largest single scientific
agricultural
complex in the world was being constructed (i.e., the land-grant
system of agricultural experiment stations, the extension service, and the
Agricultural Research Service of the the U.S. Department of Agriculture
[Busch and Lacy 1983 : Chapter 1 ; Rossiter 1979]), the institutions of U.S.
agricultural science were directed away from the analysis of social
relations
in agriculture through a series of "incidents" that made clear the
agricultural
sciences were to be focused on productivity and not on the
analysis of social relations in agriculture (Friedland 1979). Linking
themselves
at an early stage to "progressive" agriculture agricultural research
-

and development oriented to the market agricultural scientists resisted the


-

critical examination of social relations in the U.S. agriculture.


This tendency reacted its zenith after the second world war when the
U.S., well into its imperial mission, encouraged agricultural economists and
rural sociologists to study and work in Africa, Asia, and Latin America as
part of international development policy. The results continue to this very
day: U.S. agricultural social scientists know more about land tenure
arrangements and agricultural social relations in Malaysia, Bolivia, and the
Philippines than they do in Wisconsin, California, and Mississippi.
This situation remained intact until the mid-1970s when a critical
social analysis of U.S. and European agriculture began to be formulated.
The focus, here, shall be ondevelopments in the United States; the
resuscitation
of critical agricultural social analysis in Europe follows a different -

particularly a country-specific trajectory, and the unraveling of the


-

European
complexity should be left to Europeans (but see Mouzelis 1976 ; and
Goodman and Redclift 1988).
By the mid-1970s, American agriculture was beginning to experience
another major economic crisis. The post-war period, while having ups and
downs, was one of almost continuous expansion for much of U.S.
agriculture.
The contrast with the post World War I period was notable. The

the agrarian, i.e., peasant-like, character of Negroes as an agriculturally-based social

age" for U.S. agriculture. With the expansion of the U.S. population up to

agriculture
the
had expanded continuously after the 1890s. The immediate post-war
period saw the inception of a profound recession as market demand for
agricultural commodities declined while production expansion continued.
By 1922, U.S. agriculture was experiencing a crisis from which it did not
emerge until the second world war. Experience following the second
world war could hardly have been more different Entering an imperial
phase in which U.S. hegemony became global, die agricultural capability of
the United States became an integral part of its mission: food became a

an injunction which helped complete the transition in U.S.

to a fully market-oriented economy.
If this

of economic concentration in U.S. agriculture steadily pushed smaller
producers to the auction block. This was a gradual process, however,
largely unmarked by any special events until the petroleum crisis of 1973,
the Soviet-American grain deal, and the emergence of a global economic
downturn in the early 1970s. By 1975, many American farmers were
experiencing a crisis similar to that which had followed the first world war.
From this point on, U.S. agriculture experienced successive crises with
only occasional minor relief. It was this fact which began to impress itself
on the intellectual agricultural community after 1973.
That intellectual community, found in the social science departments
of the land-grant colleges of agriculture, was composed almost entirely of
agricultural economists and rural sociologists. Hie agricultural economists
were paradigmaticaily unable to confront the post-1973 crisis since their

hegemonic model was based on neoclassical economics; almost to a


person,
they saw the economic crisis as simply another adjustment in the
economic system of agriculture. The theory they espoused suggested that,
while many small or inefficient producers would fall by the wayside, this
was a necessary step in establishing a new equilibrium in agriculture, an

equilibrium in which a smaller number of efficient producers (who would,


necessarily, be larger in individual unit size) would supply the demands of
the market more efficiently.
In rural sociological circles, the situation was less sanguine. Smaller
in numbers, and certainly in influence in the land-grant institutions, rural
sociologists generally did not share the neoclassical paradigm of the
agricultural economists. Moreover, rural sociology had experienced a
boom let of its own during the period in which United States hegemony
spread abroad. The "demand" for sociologists and rural sociologists to
"explain" events in the Third World was part of a much larger
development
which hundreds of U.S. scholars (this writer included)
in were sent
abroad tolearn about an incredibly broad range of topics ranging from
land in Malaya to trade unions in Tanganyika (as these nation-states were
thenknown).
By the early 1970s, a whole new generation of rural sociologists had
been drained. On the whole, the immediate post-war generation had been
trained in a rural sociology which had learned the dangers of challenging
the hegemony of production agriculture and its intellectual articulators, the
agricultural economists. What made difference with the new
generation the
was the profound intellectual crisis which the U.S. experienced during
the decade of the 1960s with the anti-war, civil rights, and student
movements.

Thus, rural sociology graduate students during this period were formed
under sharply different circumstances than the previous cohort which had
conducted its graduate studies during the expansion of U.S. hegemony of
the late 1940s and 1950s. The radicalization of the new generation of
rural sociologists often developed when they saw their parents and
neighbors
(most of them came from agriculturally-based families) going
bankrupt
and disappearing from agriculture. Accompanying the general
radicalization
of the American students, the new generation of rural sociologists
politicized their involvement in the U.S. apparatus abroad which was, in

presence in Vietnam and at home.

This new generation therefore undertook a step which the previous


generation (with one or two notable exceptions) had been unable to take,
for the first time in three decades, turning attention to U.S. agriculture.

point: the New Left. Initially intellectually formless
except for its hostility to the Vietnam war and its support of the civil
rights movement, the New Left arrived on the U.S. scene with an
intellectual
tabula rasa. Its intellectual work began primitively with the
inauguration
of journals such as Studies on the Left, but the New Left did not begin
its profound intellectual growth until after the movement had begun to
decline. Until that time, the development of the movement of activism
- -

had been the preoccupation of the New Left which prided itself on having
left the Old Left, with its interminable discussions, behind.
Once the student and anti-war movements disappeared, the widespread
search for intellectual explanations began. Thousands of students who had
been activated during the "movement period" returned to the universities,
preparing to enter academic employment Many of these students sought
to understand what had happened to their movement, and this brought

many, in turn, to a new version of marxism now often referred to as neo-marxism.

Thus the contingent conjunction of the now-endemic agricultural crisis,


a decline in New Left activism, and the entry of many followers of the
New Left into the academy, set the stage for the emergence of a new and
critical orientation in the agricultural social sciences.

The Evolution of the Sociology of Agriculture

That rural sociology in the United States had eschewed systematic


analysis of agriculture became clear during a one-day meeting held at the
University of California, Davis, prior to the annual meeting of the Rural
Sociological Society (RSS) in 1978. This was a "rump" meeting initiated
by several younger rural sociologists, some still graduate students, who
were acutely dissatisfied with the state of U.S. agriculture, the destruction
of family-based farming, and the relative indifference of agricultural
scientists
and the agricultural economists to the crisis in U.S. agriculture.
The Davis meeting represented the first coming-together of the two
intellectual strands that would develop in rural sociology with augmentation
from other social scientists not part of the rural sociological network.
These two strands were the neopopulist and neo-marxist tendencies.
Neither
strand crystallized immediately; the Davis meeting provided the first
opportunity for both to understand their common antipathy to developments
in U.S. agriculture, to the role of the government (not yet defined as "the
state") in accomplishing the demise of family-based agriculture, and to the
failure of the agricultural social sciences to acknowledge the destruction of
family-based farming as a "problem." If both strands could find common
enemies, it became clear that there were also fundamentally different
orientations.
If both were concerned with the process of economic
concentration,
the neopopulists searched for some practical way to come to grips
with the disappearance of family-based farming whereas the neo-marxists
searched for some practical way to come to grips with the way in which
the laws of capitalist development were manifested in agriculture. Both
strands could sympathize with the movements developing in the midwest.
The neo-marxists, however, felt uncomfortable with the inability of the
neopopulists to understand that what was going on in agriculture was the
working through of fundamental processes of capitalist economic
development For their part, the neopopulists did not see the efficacy of an

attack upon capitalism as solving the pressing problem of farm


bankruptcies.
After the 1978 session, a series of meetings occurred within which
much intellectual ferment unfolded. Two patterns of activities began to
emerge: meetings held on an ad hoc basis during which new research on
agriculture was reported, and, as a concomitant, the beginnings of
publication
on agriculture reflecting the new approach.

following the Davis meeting, as research proliferated, a very informal


miniconference -

indeed, it almost an "underground" meeting


was was -

organized in conjunction with the annual gathering of the Rural


Sociological
Society in 1981. At this session the new tendency became named the
sociology of agriculture. The significance of this meeting in Guelph,
Ontario rests not only on the number of papers that were presented which
permitted the clustering of panels, but, more importantly, on the fact that a
new area of research had crystallized that deserved recognition. Up to that

point, no existing body of sociological knowledge "covered" this material.


Yet another meeting was held in conjunction with the annual meeting
of the American Sociological Association in Detroit in 1983. This session,
now explicitly focused on the sociology of agriculture, was held at the

University of Michigan at Ann Arbor. Like the Guelph session, the


number of papers reinforced the notion of a field that was no laager
"emergent" but had "arrived."
While these meetings were taking place in North America, other
meetings
took shape internationally. In 1978, at the World Congress of
Sociology
in Uppsala, Sweden, several papers on agriculture were presented. An
informal group met and requested the International Sociological Association
executive committee to include several sessions on the sociology of
agriculture
the world congress, scheduled for Mexico
at next 1982. This in
request was granted, mid several sessions were held at Mexico City.
Attendees in Mexico called for a more permanent structure within the
International Sociological Association to encourage the development of
interests in the sociology of agriculture internationally. An Ad Hoc Group
was formalized in accordance with ISA rules, and five sessions were

requested for the 1986 meeting in New Delhi, India. At the New Delhi
meetings the Ad Hoc Group was "promoted" to a Working Group and
subsequently to a Research Committee. As a Research Committee, the
Sociology
Agriculture
of group is entitled to sponsor numerous sessions at the
quadrenniel world congresses.
In 1988, taking advantage of the Worid Congress of Rural Sociology
in Bologna, Italy, a series of sessions woe incorporated into its
deliberations
by focusing on the role of the state in agriculture. At this same
Congress, the tendencies toward internationalization which had begun in
Uppsala were brought to full fruition as a one-day pre-meeting, Ancore die
12
Agrarfrage, was held
While these developments unfolded in academic meetings, the parallel
publication process was taking place. The appearance of Change in Rural
America: Causes, Consequences, and Alternatives (Rodefeid et al., 1978),
presaged the initiation of the sociology of agriculture in published form.
Based partially on older writings but incorporating new materials, this text
reflected the rural sociological origins of the emergent new focus on
agriculture,
This volume was followed by the first set of studies that
represented the new approach more explicitly; embodying populist and
neo-marxist analyses, The Rural Sociology of the Advanced Societies:
Critical
Perspectives (Buttel and Newby 1980) was the first clear theoretical
elaboration of the field, yet still reluctant (as manifested by its title) to
depart from the rural sociological connection. Subsequent studies by many
contributors over the next several years saw the final crystallization of the
sociology of agriculture as a respectable literature. In this respect, synoptic
overviews by Newby (1978, 1980, 1982, 1983a, 1983b) and Buttel (1982)
helped to define and shape the emergent field.
As research proliferated, several "problems" and ideas crystallized for
scholars working in this field. Fethaps the first of these was that sociology
as the key label was too limiting for the work being dons; what was

emerging represented a broader approach that, during die next few years,
became designated as the political economy of agriculture.
Most sociologists conducting research on agriculture were acutely
aware of the separation that had occurred historically between rural
sociology
and
agricultural deploring economics. While
separation, this most
sociologists were sensitive to the restricted outlook that agricultural
economics had "achieved" an outlook not only overly focused on the
-

neoclassical paradigm but one which, on the whole, failed to grasp the
social and political totality of modem agriculture. One thing particularly
seen as missing was critical analyses of major areas of inquiry. There
were simply too many topics in agriculture that were not being examined

by agricultural economists, let alone by rural sociologists.


At the same time, most of the researchers in the developing field of
the sociology of agriculture found that a significant amount of their work
drew and derived from "economic" data data upon which whole new
-

constructions were being developed but without which the new scholarly
developments were impossible.
12
Again the agrarian question. The title of the pre-congress meeting deliberately
conjoined Italian and German. The agrarfrage designation sought to ground
discussions in the original marxian frame of reference while modernizing both theory
and analysis.
Three other disciplines entered the research area, political
soon
science,
anthropology, geography. sociologists
and While many had been
concerned for decades with issues of rural policy, die policy aspects of
agriculture had largely been surrendered to the agricultural economists
who, on the whole, took a restricted view of policy and, as well, often set
out policy options in terms of their neoclassical perspective. As for
politics,
there had been a notable accumulation of a political science and
political
sociology literature over the decades, usually by political scientists and
sociologists who utilized their agricultural subject matter to pursue
generalized
political issues but who were disinterested in the politics of agriculture
itself (Banfield 1951 ; Selznick 1953 ). With one major exception
(Hadwiger 1982), agricultural politics and policy represented constricted
and limited topics that scholars waking in the field of the sociology of
agriculture recognized as critical to understanding the agricultural
complexes
of advanced capitalist societies.
The anthropological approach often augmented by oral history
-

methods began
-
to be appreciated as microanalytic studies turned to such
issues as the persistence of family-based farming and (he detailed
organization
of labor processes in distinctive agricultural commodities (see, for
example, Chibnik 1987 ). In any case, practitioners of both disciplines, on
the one hand, were drawn into the developing field of the sociology of
agriculture while, on the other hand, sociologists increasingly found
themselves
using approaches rooted in these two disciplines.
The geographical approach was probably most strongly represented in
Europe, particularly among the British. Although there had been an early
neo-marxist and neopopulist study by an American geographer (Vogeler
1981), it was left to the British and Canadians to introduce a systematic set
of geographic concerns about agriculture {Fuller 1984; Hogg art and Buller
1987; Marsden et al. 1986 , 1987).
Yet another intellectual strand close to the developing scholarly
came

movement, although always retaining a clear independence. This was the


formation of the New World Agriculture Group (NWAG) by biological and
ecological scientists at a number of universities. Adhering to a clear-cut
marxist frame of reference, this group, while focusing heavily on providing
support to agricultural research in revolutionary societies such as
Nicaragua, also became concerned with some of the topics being studied
by participants in the political economy network, particularly agricultural
labor (Vandermeer 1981) and the environmental effects of large-scale
capitalist
agricultural production (Levins and Lewinton 1985 ).
Additionally, as studies of the social organization of scientific activity
proliferated, social analyses of the agricultural sciences began to emerge.
Studies by Busch and Lacy (1983; 1986), Hadwiger (1982) , and Ruttan
(1982) provided the first thorough description of die agricultural science
network in the United States.
What became increasingly clear as the field emerged was that the
designation sociology, white convenient, failed to grasp, in terms of the
historic parameters of a very flexible and adaptive discipline, the
complexity
of agricultural social relations. In this respect, what emerged was an
interest in what conventional social science circles might refer to as
interdisciplinary
work, a term that undoubtedly would be rejected by most of
the participants in this tendency. Most neo-marxist social scientists do not
perceive of themselves as interdisciplinarians. Further, the term political
economy emphasizes die impossibility of disaggregating the social from the
economic, political, cultural or, indeed, the scientific.
A second major trend also became discernible: the emergence of
comparativeand global perspectives. Comparative analysis has long been an
important methodology in the social sciences. The comparative analysis of
national agricultural systems began to make clear the existence of four
distinctiveloci for potential intellectual work: the agricultural systems of
advanced capitalism, the Third World, of "socialist" or centrally-planned
economies, and of the global economy.
The cross-national comparative approach has not yet developed as a
distinctive subfield in the new political economy of agriculture. In one
sense, nationally-based perspectives continue to dominate the field. This
limiting focus is understandable given the complex character of national
agricultural systems; developing a thorough understanding of a national
system, much less a global one, requires years (if not decades) of research.
Thus, the generation of a truly comparative approach to understanding
national systems remains a nascent but critical item on the agenda.

Major Developments in the New Political Economy of Agriculture

The past decade has seen a proliferation of published research on the


political economy and the sociology of capitalist agriculture. This section,
without claiming to be exhaustive, presents some of the major findings
elicitedover this period. Briefly, this section describes several major
research areas that have been developed.
Despite the nascent character of the discipline, it has become quite
clear that there are common features of capitalist agricultural systems when
compared cross-nationally. In such varied contexts as Canada, Great
Britain,
France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, the Scandinavian countries, Spain,
and the United States, there exist common intellectual orientations and
problematics. First among these commonalities is the issue of the "survival
capability" of family-based farm units in the light of the declining
significance of agriculture for national economies and labor markets.
While the nomenclature of the problem -
for example, pluriactivité in
France and part-time farming in the U.S. -
varies, the central issue focuses
on the increased concentration of agricultural production in a miniscule
percentage of very large units and the increase in the number of farmers
sustaining their presence in agriculture through off-farm sources of income
(see, e.g., Bonanno 1987 ).
In the United States, formulations such as "part-time farming," the
"disappearing middle," "rural turnaround," "rural renaissance," "hobby
farmers," "tax-loss farmers," "farmettes," and "retirement farms" represent
attempts to come to grips with what became known in the last years of the
Carter administration in the 1970s, as the "changing structure of
agriculture"
(U.S. Department of Agriculture 1981). Confronting the increased
share of national production concentrated in the largest 200,000 agricultural
units and representing continuity in developments that had spearheaded the
formation of the sociology of agriculture approach, debate has been
continuing
-
and now represents a significant part of the literature on -

persistence
versus disappearance of family farming (or, as it is sometimes

referred to, the "family labor farm," i.e., the agricultural production unit
which is of sufficient economic strength to provide an economic base to a
family and whose labor is provided, in the majority, by family members).
Two distinctive approaches have emerged as this literature has
crystallized.
The first
emphasizes the
persistence, adaptibility, flexibility and of
smaller units; the second sees the continuing demise of such units and their
conversion into units in which a growing share of family income is derived
from off-farm sources. To a considerable degree the differences in
approach have developed from the methodology used by scholars in
investigating
this phenomenon. Microanalytic approaches, particularly those of
anthropology and oral history, typically emphasize the persistence theme
(see, for example, the papers in Chibnik 1987 and in Gladwin and Truman
1989 ; see also Salamon and Klein 1979, Salamon and O'Reilly 1979,
Salamon 1980) whereas macroanalyses tend to emphasize demise. Here
the problem is to reconcile what the perspective of the observer permits,
on the one hand, and that which it obfuscates, on the other. The literature

being produced on this topic not only includes debates between the two
approaches, but an attempt on the part of some of those emphasizing the
persistence theme to develop a better understanding of the factors
contributing
to differentiation and demise.
An essential element for the development of truly cross-national
comparative analysis requires that national-level analyses use common
categories of analysis and be knowledgeable about the character of
agricultural
systems in nations other than those in which scholarly expertise
exists. This part of the process is only just beginning, and an essential
elementin its evolution is to bring together scholars with in-depth knowledge
of their own national agricultural systems in contexts in which they can
begin to explore the commonalities and variations more explicitly. This
was the notion that underlay the approach to the agenda of the miniconference
from which the papers in this volume were drawn.
Although an explicitly cross-national comparative approach has not yet
emerged in the new political economy of agriculture, the emphasis on
global
issues is cme about which most scholars have become acutely sensitive.
This has become particularly manifest in several different areas.
First, there has been a growing recognition that the so-called

agricultural
is endemic national
"crisis" of
structural and to every economy
advanced capitalism and exhibits continuity in a series of overproduction
"crises" over more than a century. A tetter understanding of the ubiquity
of "crisis," the way it has manifested itself differentially within national
social formations, and the transnational market and nonmarket forces that
are contributing to it, represents one set of topics that have begun to be

explored (Goodman and Redclift 1989 ).


A second topic emerges from the larger literature concerned with the
restructuring of capitalist economies, a concern that has emerged in part as
a result of the decline of the British and American economies and the

growth in significance of those of Germany and Japan. Restructuring,


however, is far more profound than the shift in significance of national
economies; it has to do much mm with the development of a new
international
division of labor in production, distribution, finance capital, and
labor markets and relations. 13 And while much of the scholarly research on
this topic has taken place in production and circulation spheres other than
agriculture, there is now a growing concern to understand how
internationalization
processes operate in the realms of food and fiber production,
transformation into commodities, and access to money-capital and labor
(e.g., Sanderson 1985, 1986) and what the limits of internationalization are.
There have been profound new developments globally in agricultural
production. While "basic" wage-foods and industrial raw material
commodities
such as wheat, sugar, and cotton have long been implicated in global
markets, recent decades have seen die emergence of mass markets for
"luxury" commodities such as table grapes, citrus, frozen concentrated
orange juice, and kiwifruit. But other commodities, "intermediate" between
the old mass production crops and die newer luxury items, are also
entering
into more profound global production relations and distribution circuits.
These new "intermediate" commodities, which include processing tomatoes

13
We thus recognize that the traditional usage of "new international division of
labor" (e.g., Fiobel 1980) has implied a narrow focus on the relocation of
manufacturing activity from high- to tow-wage zones (Gordon 1988). In fact, the "new
internationalization" has been as or more profound in areas of credit and money capital
(Green 1987; Jenkins 1987) labor (Sassen 1988) and agriculture (Sanderson 198S).
, ,
and raisins, must be understood in a global context For example, the
entry of Greece into the European Economic Community had profound
effects cm the production of American raisins and, in turn, on the
economics
of the U.S. wine industry. Although research requires a global
approach, difficulties are often encountered because of the paucity of
research "at the base"; that is, there is, all too frequently, inadequate
research material concerning what is happening at the national level for
these commodities which now operate so profoundly in global markets.
Nevertheless, some research has begun to undertake the complex task of
understanding the global, international, and regional developments in the
production and distribution of food and fiber, the forces that are
contributing
to the elaboration of global systems, and the consequences at national
levels of such developments.
Yet another aspect of the global developments in agricultural political
economy involves a more explicit formulation: the articulation between the
agricultural production and distribution systems of advanced capitalism and
the Third World.
In marxian (and other) intellectual traditions, the relations between the
First and Third Worlds were encompassed in formulations involving
"imperialism," "colonialism," "neocolonialism," "unequal exchange,"
"surplus extraction," and the distinction between "central and peripheral
accumulation," and so on (see, for example, Brewer 1981 ; Corbridge
1986 ). These formulations have not lost their salience but they describe
generalized relationships and, arguably, give too much stress to idealized
core-periphery differences and tend to ignore heterogeneity within both
core and periphery. In considering the specificities of agriculture, the
intention has been to elucidate more recent exploitative relationships,
relationships
distinctive to agriculture, between First and Third World nations
arid, particularly, to explore the character of what might be called
transnational
agriculture.
Classical colonialism and imperialism referred to direct political and
economic exploitation in a global division of labor in which raw materials
were transferred from the Third to the First World at cheap prices. Recent

developments in the international division of labor have witnessed many


changes and refinements in what remains a basically exploitative
relationship,
but one which has become more diffused through the mediation of
global commodity markets (including markets in money-capital [Green
1987 ] and labor [ Sassen 1988 ]) rather than through the more direct,
immediate, and transparent
political military and domination of
imperialism.
In the new forms, while production of traditional agricultural
commodities
such sugar often remains based in tropical Third World nations,
as
"newer" commodities are entering into global commerce. Brazil's position
as the leading world exporter of frozen concentrated orange juice is
exemplary. Now a major world producer of oranges, Brazil consumes this
commodity only-in small quantities as a fresh product; the bulk of
production
is destined for world market distribution, with domestic consumption
of frozen concentrate being inconsequential because of the inequality of
income distribution in Brazil and the lack of domestic demand for a
commodity
whose consumption presumes the availability of household
refrigeration.
Similarly, the availability of table grapes in countries such as the
U.S.,
Great Britain, Germany, Sweden, etc., in mid-winter represents
the
emergence
of a new fresh fruit distribution system that integrates production in
the southern hemisphere especially from Chile with consumption in the
- -

northern hemisphere. The rapid spread of new food forms -


for example,
kiwifruit (originally marketed from New Zealand) -

represents yet another


case of die integration of production and distribution globally. The

complexity
of these distribution systems is such that, in 1988, the discovery of
two grape berries laced with cyanide collapsed the entire Chilean
distribution
network, costing an estimated $260 million through the destruction of
over 8% of Chile's annual production of grapes in the distributional
pipeline
(The Packer, July 22, 1989: 1A). Thus, the articulation between the
food and fiber production and distribution systems of First and Third
Worlds constitutes a topic that should be encompassed within the new
political
economy of captitalist agriculture.

Lacunae in the Political Economy of Agriculture Literature

If the new political economy of agriculture has developed quite


remarkably in the past decade, a number of topics that "obviously" might
have been studied remain -
at least in part, if not completely in a
-

research limbo. These include the analysis of industrial organization, the


character and location of economic concentration, the agricultural labor
market, the comparative analysis of agricultural worker organization,
environmental issues, rent, and policy analysis.
One topic that has been strangely absent in the early development of
the sociology of agriculture and present only in limited and somewhat
distorted
form in agricultural economics is that which seeks to understand the
confluence of organization and economic concentration. While sociologists
have been interested in industrial organization since the emergence of
industrial sociology after the second world war, that field became
increasingly
circumscribed as it focused on the analysis of formal organization.
Strangely, however, this approach, which seeks to understand the inner
workings of industrial organization, has constituted a major vacuum, up
until the present, in the sociology of agriculture. Nor have agricultural
economists given much attention to the inner workings of agricultural
organizations whether of general farm organizations, commodity
-

organizations,
special-purpose agricultural organizations, or individual agricultural
farm firms. Agricultural economists have looked at some of the economic
ramifications of organizations such as marketing-order organizations. This
literature, however, is devoid of any material that provides an
understanding
of how such organizations function, i.e., the political economy of
agricultural
organization. Thus, for this type of organization at least, we know
more about the consequences of their behavior thanks to the work of the
-

agricultural economists than we do as to why they do what they do, and


-

how they do it. Although this would seem to be an obvious research topic
for sociologists, that has not been the case.
Another aspect of this topic concerns the interrelationship of
organization
and economic concentration. Here the approach taken by one branch
of economics, neoclassical industrial organization, could be usefully applied
to understanding the new political economy of capitalist agriculture. This
requires the utilization of a commodity systems approach (Friedland et al.
1978; Friedland 1984) and the asking of such questions as: where, in the
chain of production and distribution of particular commodities, does
concentration
occur? Does it occur at the level of growers, grower
cooperatives,
marketing orders, processors, bulk purchasers of the commodity as a
food input, etc.? Further, how shall we account for the variable

economy should be mentioned. One of
-

these, the character of agricultural labor markets and their relationship to


the changing structure of global, national, and regional economies, is very
well developed in the Italian context The topic has become one of
interest within other European countries but has not yet had significant
resonance in the United States or Canada. One major aspect of the
problem,
international migration of agricultural labor, is still bound up with
national analysis and tends to be characterized by a focus on localized and
detailed descriptive studies. Some work has begun, however, which seeks
to develop a more explicitly comparative dimension. This is an area that

14

Clegg (1989) and others make this task immeasurably easier, however.
begs for building on the base of localized studies and one which, we
believe, will develop more explicitly in the coming period (following, for
example, Sassen's [1988] path-breaking work on the internationalization of
labor and capital).
One topic that has not been explored in a very systematic fashion,
somewhat surprisingly since it concerns a key idea in marxism, is that of
working class organization and struggle. While there are many studies of
the development of working class organization at the national level, the
comparative analysis of the agricultural working class has been almost
nonexistent. In this respect, the national orientation of marxists is quite
profound, if somewhat embarrassing.
Yet another issue has to do with what might be referred to as policy
or "applied" activity. "Policy" formulation has been historically established
as the domain of the agricultural economists and, in most cases, issues
have been framed as to how to confront problems such as how to reduce
the national (or, in the case of Europe, die European Community) burden
of agricultural subsidies or how to grapple with the relationship between
national overproduction and the world market for agricultural commodities.
While rural sociologists have long been concerned about "application" and
"applied work," a somewhat different orientation is emerging within the
new political economy of apiculture. In the older rural sociological

tradition,
"application" referred to the work that social science extension did on
such topics as community development, community reorganization, or
community
resuscitation.
The of
new political economy agriculture, however, has been bereft of
policy discussions, at least until recently. In part this is a function of the
newness of these debates; in part this is also a reflection of the inability of
mandsi scholars to break with the modern formulations of traditionalist
paradigms -
of social democracy (with its welfare state and regulatory
approaches to agriculture), or Leninism (with its notion of collective
farms), or of cooperative forms (particularly of the Israeli models) and to
-

develop distinctly new approaches.


Many scholars, in their resuscitation of marxism in its current neo-marxist
form, have focused heavily on breaking with classical formulations
and developing their analyses in new directions. While highly creditable,
this approach has taken theoretical form and preoccupied its devotees to
the point that they have overlooked what has been referred to in marxism
as praxis. Its followers have forgotten the eleventh of Marx's "Theses on
Feuerbach" (Marx 1976 [1845]) which calls for philosophers not simply to
understand the world but to change it.
This approach, not fully shared within the new political economy of
agriculture network, derives from one segment of researchers who have not
abandoned the hopes that socialism initially held out hopes that have
-

been frustrated by the nightmares of the gulag, the Cambodian genocide,


and the Peoples' Army tanks in Tienanmen Square. These horrors, made
in the name of socialism, remain an indelible part of socialism's heritage.
Some of those involved in the new political economy of agriculture have
found these experiences to be structurally integrated with marxism and
have therefore withdrawn from a search for application. Others still
believe in the humane and humanistic character of socialism and want to
find ways to take the initial impetus of Die Agrarfrage and apply it to our
time along with the lessons that should be learned from the Russian
revolution
and its aftermath, and the collapse of Communist Party domination
in Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union.
Finally, researchers in the new political economy of agriculture have
been slow to delve into the important, but complex linkages between
natural-ecological processes and agricultural production systems. This area
of work is relatively well advanced with respect to Third World agriculture
(see, e.g., Redclift 1987). And while this task has begun within the New
World Agriculture Group, as noted earlier, and there exist provocative
points of departure (see, for example, Frankel 1983 , and the new journal
Capitalism, Nature, Socialism), there remains a need for serious social
science
scholarship on phenomena such as the degradation of the forces and
conditions of production in modern agriculture, the articulation of
agriculture- and food-related movements with the larger "new social
movements"
ensemble, and the role of environmental in shaping food concerns

and agricultural policies.

Toward A "New" Political Economy:


15
The Intellectual Transition in the Analysis of Agriculture

It was stressed earlier that the new political economy of agriculture

manifests its "newness" in both the emergent realities of the transnationalization


of agriculture on the one hand, and on new theoretical approaches
on the other. This section focuses more precisely on the latter aspect of
the new political economy. Before doing so, however, it is important to
stress that this notion of "new political economy" should be taken neither
to imply that there is an identifiable category of "old," inferior political
economy nor that this volume contains a homogeneous collection of papers
that adhere to a singular, superior theoretical framework. Our notion of
new political economy, then, should be viewed more as a description of

important tendencies in the literature and in research than as a prescription


of the form of analysis. The following paragraphs will identify some of

15
This section was written by Frederick H. Buttel.
the important tendencies that the more recent literature in the political
economy of agriculture and many of the papers in this volume have
followed.
As thepolitical economy of agriculture began to take shape in the late
1970s, unsurprisingly, it reflected the nature of the adjacent literatures from
which it borrowed (e.g., peasant studies, development theory) and, as well,
the nature of western neo-marxism of the time. The implications of this
heritage woe three-fold. First, there was a stress on generalizing or
deductive theories 16 of agrarian transition (for example, caricatures of
Lenin's theory of differentiation of the peasantry). Second, the political
economy of agriculture scholarship in its early years focused heavily
around the "agrarian question," relatively narrowly construed as debates on
the transformation vs. persistence of the "family farm" and on the political
economy of agriculture as a production sector, i.e., in relative isolation
from other sectors. 17 Finally, this early scholarship often had a
preoccupation
with depicting how capitalism in agriculture was distinct from, and
incompletely penetrated by, or insulated from modem industrial capitalism.18

The new political economy, by contrast, involves postures that have


begun to depart substantially from the emphases of the late 1970s.
Increasingly, the more mature scholarship, for reasons internal to the
political
economy of agriculture community as well as larger trends within neo-marxist
analysis, exhibits a considerable degree of departure from the
deductivist postures of a decade ago. Though this trend was anticipated by
Mouzelis (1976) many years ago and furthered by the work of Goodman
and Redclift (1982) and Goodman et al. (1987) during the 1980s, the
notion of there being multiple processes and routes of capitalist penetration
and transformation of agriculture is increasingly accepted. Much of the

16
See Sayer (1987) for a provocative account of how western marxism,
especially the varieties of neo-marxism that predominated in the 1970s, tended to
rigidity marxist categories, to strive for an illusory generalizeability, to ignore the
humanist and dialectical underpinnings of Marx' thought, aad to stress positivist
methodologies.
17
Neo-marxist scholarship of the time was largely focused on debates between
"Chayanovian msrxistt" (as Lehmaen [1986] portrays the wort of Fricdmann [1980]
aad Mann sad Dickinson [1978]) versus those working from truncated versions of
Lenin's and Kautsky's theories (e.g., de Janvry 1980).

18 Major variants of this approach included functionalist arguments (e.g.,


Veigopolous' [1978] contention that a smallholder peasantry is functional to capitalist
accumulation) and "modes of production" arguments (e.g., that agricultural production
constitutes a distinct, if not noncapitalist, mode of production [Amin and Veigopolous
1974]).
scholarship in this volume (e.g., the papers by Mottura andandMingione,
Buttel and LaRamee) explicitly or works on this premise. A
implicitly
somewhat different departure from the deductivist structural reasoning of
the early scholarship in the field is Mooney's (1988) blending of neo-marxism
and neo-weberianism into a sociology of agriculture that stresses
the subjectivity of actors.
Second, the departure from late 1970s scholarship that is arguably the
most obvious -
and yet dramatic is the reconceptualization of agriculture
-

to stress a new set of problematics that transcend the traditional agrarian

question, based as it was on an historically-circumscribed period of state-building


(McMichael and Buttel 1990). These new problematics involve,
in particular, the nature of the articulations between agriculture, agricapitalist
enterprises, the state, and non-agricultural institutions. Not only
does the recent scholarship, exemplified by several chapters in this volume
(particularly those in Part I ), take a broader view of food and agriculture
than was typically the case a decade ago, but recent theories and research
approaches are much more sensitive to die interrelations between
agriculture
and "other sectors" (e.g., Friedmann and McMichael, 1989, and
Goodman et al., 1987 ; Kenney et al., this volume). In a certain sense, the
modern political economy of agriculture is ironically returning to the more
general problematics of Kautsky and Lenin, who, far more than their late
1970s disciples, recognized the mutual relations between agriculture and
nonfarm industry, the state, and other institutions (e.g., Friedmann, in this
volume). At the same time, a mere assertion of the imprimatur of the
classics will not do, as the transnationalization of agriculture has dictated
that our categories not be limited to those of national economy and
nation-state.
The theory and research in this volume also represent a significant
change from the late-1970s preoccupation with the differences between
agrarian and nonagrarian capitalism. Much of the early theorizing in the
political economy of agriculture took as its point of departure die fact that
the structure of agricultural production is premised on dynamics that are
fundamentally distinct from those of industrial capitalism, or that
agriculture
is a nondynamic, lagged, or "backward" form of industrial capitalism.
As Pugliese stresses in this volume, there has recently been a discernible
trend nonfarm labor processes in Italy to replicate those found in
for
agriculturefor some time (e.g., informatization, pluriactivity, intermittent
employment, etc.). Goodman likewise demonstrates below that agri-industry,
more often than not, has set the trends that ultimately become

generalized in many nonfarm industries. Thus, recent scholarship has


moved away from privileging nonagricultural industry as the motor force
of social change in agriculture.
The Organization of This Book

The papers in this volume were prepared, with two exceptions, for a
miniconference held in conjunction with the 50th Anniversary meeting of
the Rural Sociological Society. The miniconference on the Political
Economy
of Agriculture, held in Madison, Wisconsin, 12-15 August 1987,
brought together the authors of the papers contained hare and others in a
series of sessions that provided an opportunity for continuous exchange on
a number of emergent issues.

Holding a series of meetings on political economy in the context of


the annual meeting of rural sociologists may appear to be somewhat
unusual; that such a meeting could be held in conjunction with the annual
assemblage of rural sociologists indicates the willingness of the program
committee of the RSS to host these sessions, i.e., the openness of rural
sociologists to new approaches and ideas and the degree to which interest
in agricultural matters has now become pervasive in American rural
sociology.
In many respects, the organization of the book follows the
organization
of the miniconference but there have been changes because the
some

papers of some contributors to the conference have not been included in


this book and the two papers on women and agriculture were not part of
the original conference. The paper by Friedland on women in U.S.
agriculture
was delivered at the annual meeting of the American Sociological

Association heid immediately after the Madison meeting. The paper by


Raynolds on women and agriculture in the Third World was "discovered"
during the course of the Madison meeting.
The first part of this volume, on "Agriculture and Agri-industry in
New National and International Divisions of Labor," focuses on the
transformation of agri-food systems. Consisting of papers by David
Goodman,
Harriet Friedmann, and Giovanni Mottura and Enzo Mingione, these
authors examine the complex integration of food systems with agriculture
and the emergence of the global agri-food system. The Goodman paper
extends the analysis of Goodman et al. (1987) by showing how appropriationist
and substitutionist aspects of agricultural technology have shaped the
major patterns of structural change in agri-industry. Friedmann's paper
delineates the deconstruction of an older global agricultural regime, which
involved a division of labor between advanced capitalist countries and
tropical
agricultures, and the transition of the international division of labor in
agriculture into the current global food regime based on commodity substi-tutionism
in the production of durable foods within and for a world market.
The contribution by Mottura and Mingione, in addition to demonstrating
the enormous adaptibility of capitalist agriculture in incorporating
significant numbers of small, highly productive, family-based units and
underemployed workers into a highly modernized agricultural system,
demonstrates the articulation between agrarian and agri-industrial
restructuring
in Italy over the past two decades.
The second of Crisis the volume focuses and the
part on "Agricultural
Restructuring of Agriculture and Agri-Industry." The paper by Jean-Pierre
Berlan discusses the emergence of soy production in the United States,
showing soy's contribution to the formation of the global meat complex.
Berlan also analyses a larger topic: how political and technological
developments in modern agriculture combine to make overproduction crises
inevitable. Enrico Pugliese's paper examines die development of the
modern agricultural labor market and demonstrates the new congruence
between this labor market and urban-industrial labor markets. The chapter
by Frederick Buttel and Pierre LaRamee turns to a consideration of the
"disappearing middle" debate in U.S. agriculture, suggesting that while die
notion has empirical validity, it is a "pseudo-theory" that must be better
grounded in the changing social relations of modem agriculture,
particularly
the 1970s agricultural investment boom and the global farm crisis of
the 1980s.
Part 3 of the book, consisting of papers by Martin Kenney, Linda
Lobao, James Curry, and Richard Goe, and by Shripad Deo and Louis
Swanson, deals with "Political Economy of Technological
Transformation
the
of Agri-Food Science and Technology." The paper by Kenney st al.,
building on earlier work (Kenney et al. 1989) focuses on how the concepts
of Fordism and regimes of accumulation can be usefully applied to
understanding
technological and structural change in Midwestern agriculture.
Kenney and colleagues also focus on how biotechnology might spearhead
future changes, toward either mass production of homogeneous
commodities
or specialization depending on the as-yet unknown character of the

new regime of accumulation. The Deo-Swanson papa examines the way


in which the agri-science network of the United States contributed to die
emergence of neocolonial agricultures in the Third World.
Part 4 is focused on Agriculture and the State: Historical and
ComparativePerspectives." The first paper, by Steve McClellan, approaches
agriculture and the state from the vantage point of debates within neo-marxist
and neo-weberian state theories. McOellan argues that statism, the
prevailing theoretical perspective on New Deal agricultural policy
formation,
conflates autonomy from class interests with autonomy from class
relations. He then suggests how the work of Fred Block, Nicos
Poulantzas, and Antonio Gramsci can help to understand how an accumulationist
farm policy was developed during the Great Depression. Michael
Gertler's chapter explores the role that state policy plays in rationalizing
the potentially anarchic relations between vegetable processors mid farmers.
Through comparative analysis of Ontario and New York, in which
geophysical
conditions are homogeneous, he shows how distinct patterns of state
intervention in vegetable product markets have evolved since World War
II. David Vail's paper on Sweden focuses on what cuirendy remains an
unusual situation, one in which a nation-state may be preparing to treat
agriculture as an environmental amenity rather than as a modality of food
security or capital accumulation. With the growth of environmental
mobilization
in the realms of food and agriculture, however, the Swedish case
may assume wider importance in the 1990s. Reidar Almaas' paper deals
with the debates in policy formulation in Norwegian agriculture, showing
how these debates influence state policy and critically affect the structure
of Norwegian agriculture. Manuel Moreira's paper demonstrates the role
of state policy in shaping the distinctive features of Portuguese agriculture,
in which systems of smallholder peasant farms in its north and
unproductive
latifundia in the south have been sustained.
Part 5 deals with a topic the role of women in agricultural
-

production
and reproduction that should be discussed in most of the papers hut,
-

because of traditional foci, is not. As noted earlier, Friedland's paper


focuses on women in U.S. agriculture whereas Raynolds' examines women
in Third World agriculture. Both papers set distinctive questions to be
considered in expanding the political economy of capitalist agriculture.

Conclusion

Finally, it should be noted that the papers in this volume only begin
the examination of the new political economy of capitalist agriculture.
Before a more comprehensive analysis becomes possible, much preliminary
research is required. Several topics not covered by these papers have been
mentioned earlier in this chapter. As the network of scholars interested in
and conducting research on the political economy of capitalist agriculture
grows, we can expect that some of these topics will begin to be elucidated.
