By Natalie Perdue

Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject History - World History - Early and Ancient History, language: English, abstract: The relationship between agriculture and society is complex, and it is often evaluated from an economic perspective. This research aims to go beyond that limited perspective and examines the negative social consequences that have developed in human social behavior and in public health since the Neolithic Revolution. It focuses primarily on the United States, which utilizes some of the most advanced industrial agricultural practices seen throughout the world, and which sets a lifestyle example that many other nations attempt to emulate. Research has been conducted in multiple disciplines, including social and physical evolutionary science, sociological examinations of the effects of agriculture, medical studies on current public health issues, and economic texts largely focusing on the drastic inequality in the modern U.S.A.
