A Missing Link: The Agrarian Question in Southeast Europe

Journal Title: Martor. The Museum of the Romanian Peasant Anthropology Review - Year 2014, Vol 19, Issue 19

Abstract

As studies on Southeast European peasantry are scarce, this collection of articles seeks to fill this void. The argument of this collection relies on the social history of South-Eastern Europe itself, widely neglected in peasant studies. The attempts of the communist regimes to modernize the countries in this area, mainly through collectivization, expropriation, and forced industrialization, have not lead to disappearance of the peasantry from any of these countries.
