CALL FOR PAPERS!
European Association for American Studies Biennial Conference, Graz,
Austria, April 14-17, 2000.
Workshop 19 : AGRICULTURE AND NATURE IN THE UNITED STATES : ALTERNATIVES
TO EXPLOITATIVE FARMING (from colonial times to World War II)
Highly industrialized agriculture is being increasingly challenged by
alternative agriculture groups who advocate an environmentally sustainable
and economically viable system of farming. But what about earlier attempts
to promote alternative forms of agricultural production? The workshop will
address the following questions regarding such endeavors: exactly what types
of farming practices were criticized and what was suggested instead? Who
came to be preoccupied with the impact of exploitive agriculture on the
environment? Where were such views expressed (travelers' accounts, official
reports, farm magazines, philosophical essays, fiction....)? What about the
beliefs and values underlying such approaches to agriculture? Did such
concerns translate into actual experiments on the farm?
