Agricultural Knowledge Networks in Rural Europe, 1700-2000
An examination of how farming expertise could be shared and extended, over four centuries.All kinds of knowledge, from traditional know-how to modern science, are socially contingent and the product of an age-long and permanent social struggle. It explores the spreading of knowing through the lens of "knowledge networks" where did agricultural knowledge come from and how did one learn to run a farm? This book unravels the creation and the exchange of agronomic knowledge in rural Europe, from the early eighteenth century up until the end of the twentieth.
Which strategies and communicative methods were employed and what kind of networks were active?The answers to these questions mirror, as the book illustrates, the inventiveness of the actors on the scene: the creativity of a French naturalist in establishing links with Who was involved in this process of knowledge exchange?
