AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS (The International Library of Critical Writings in Economics series, 55)

Agriculture has been a significant source of economic and political conflict between nations during the last 20 years. This volume focuses on the role and operation of agriculture in developed market economies. It opens with a set of papers dealing with the basic economic organization of farming and with the market setting in which it operates. A section on agricultural policy analysis is followed by material relating to policy studies in the national and internaional settings. An additional dimension is supplied by a short selection of material relevant to problems of agriculture in the Third World. The emphasis throughout is on the economic analysis of policy measures which affect agriculture worldwide, including the most recent developments.
