Disrupted Landscapes : State, Peasants and the Politics of Land in Postsocialist Romania, Paperback / softback Book

Disrupted Landscapes : State, Peasants and the Politics of Land in Postsocialist Romania Paperback / softback

Part of the Environment in History: International Perspectives series

Paperback / softback

Description

The fall of the Soviet Union was a transformative event for the national political economies of Eastern Europe, leading not only to new regimes of ownership and development but to dramatic changes in the natural world itself.

This painstakingly researched volume focuses on the emblematic case of postsocialist Romania, in which the transition from collectivization to privatization profoundly reshaped the nation’s forests, farmlands, and rivers.

From bureaucrats abetting illegal deforestation to peasants opposing government agricultural policies, it reveals the social and political mechanisms by which neoliberalism was introduced into the Romanian landscape.
