Overview
Integrating a focus on gender with Marx's surplus-based notion of class, this book offers a one-of-a-kind analysis of family farms in the United States. The analysis shows how gender and class struggles during important moments in the history of these family farms shaped the trajectory of U.S. agricultural development, highlighting the significant costs associated with the intensification of exploitation in the transition to industrial agriculture.
