Macht in einer globalisierten landwirtschaftlichen Produktion

By virtue of the soy boom Argentina, recovered faster from the economic crisis than any other country. But who has benefited from the abundance of this resource in such a globalised and hightech form of agriculture as that in Argentina? Addressing this question with qualitative research methods, this book analyses the power relations in Argentinian soy production and in conflicts related to it. The author uses concepts of global production networks and amplifies them with sociological perspectives on power. Her results show that global corporations are increasingly dominating soy production, which leads her to the conclusion that the soy boom is not suitable for generating wealth in Argentina in the long term.
