Food and the global agricultural system has become one of the defining public concerns of the twenty-first century. This book examines the ecological disorder and inequity at the heart of our food system. It tells the story of how the development of modern agriculture promised ecological and social stability but instead descended into dysfunction. Contributing to knowledge in environmental, cultural and agricultural histories, it explores how people have tried to live in the aftermath of 'ecological imperialism'.
