Multifunctional Agriculture: A Transition Theory Perspective

Geoff Wilson (University of Plymouth, UK)

In a time of great agricultural and rural change, the notion of ‘multifunctionality’ has remained under-theorized and poorly linked to wider debates in the social sciences. This book analyses the extent to which the proposed transition towards post-productivist agriculture holds up to scientific scrutiny, and proposes a modified productivist/non-productivist model that better encapsulates the complexity of agricultural and rural change. By combining existing notions and concepts, this book (re)conceptualizes agricultural change, creating a new transition theory, and a new way of looking at the future of agriculture.
