This guided-reading course is meant to familiarize students with current and recent debates in the history of European agriculture after the 1850s.
The course is based on recent general overviews of the period (the book by Giovanni Federico and the volume edited by Laps and Pinilla, see bibliography) and more specific readings that will be assigned weekly.
It the course concentrates on the following topics:
- natural endowments and climatic change;
- markets for agricultural commodities and international trade;
- output and productivity growth;
- agricultural policies and government intervention;
- the evolution of landownership and tenancy patterns.
The course covers a period marked by dramatic breaks, such as the first globalization, the world wars, the Great Depression, the industrialization wave of the post-WW2 period, the creation of the European CAP, and the second globalization.
