Beskrivning
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, agricultural practices and rural livelihoods were challenged by changes such as commercialization, intensified global trade, and rapid urbanization. Planting Seeds of Knowledge studies the relationship between these agricultural changes and knowledge-making through a transnational lens. Spanning exchanges between different parts of Europe, North and South America, the Indian subcontinent, and Africa, the wide-reaching contributions to this volume reform current historiography to show how local experiences redefined global practice.

Recensioner i media

“Overall, the volume shows a variety of experiences using the example of the agricultural circulation of knowledge. Great framework narratives of modernization lose plausibility when one reads them. This creates a detailed picture of global practices and knowledge in the agricultural sector, which did not follow a uniform pattern of progress, but whose contradictions and failures were often similar.” • H-Soz-Kult
