Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book discusses the causes and consequences of the ongoing depopulation and decline of the American rural way of life. After the Second World War, American society evolved, with an expansion of industry and technology transforming the national economy from agriculture to urbanized manufacturing, and agriculture became less lucrative. As a result, the rural population dwindled as people moved from farms into cities and stayed there. The author discusses the impact of this movement on rural communities, family structures and traditions, local economies, and the social and political makeup of the nation. Additionally, the author examines the rise of corporate farms, the shift in immigrant farm labour, the decline of independent farming, and the changing relationship between rural and urban America.
