This book aims to explore the role of generational relations in the reproduction of agrarian communities in their confrontation with emerging capitalist relations.
Generational dimensions are obviously important in the social reproduction of agrarian communities, and deserving the attention of all those interested in agricultural futures, but they have been relatively neglected compared to class and gender. With some exceptions, especially in Africa (Sumberg et al., 2012) researchers and activists have given little attention to intergenerational differences and tensions in rural people's engagement with smallholder farming, and with expanding corporate agribusiness.
