The Global Ascension of Corn and Soybeans
As part of the “iron triangle,” producer and corporate interests have a significant influence on agricultural policy, but this influence is complicated by changing and competing interests, particularly around corn, cotton, soybeans, and wheat. From the 1930s to the 1970s, a wheat-cotton coalition helped to forge a policy of supply management that relied on price supports, production controls, and export subsidies that aimed to increase farm incom…
Structure, Agency and Biotechnology
The Politics of Food Supply
This book deals with an important and timely issue: the political and economic forces that have shaped agricultural policies in the United States during the past eighty years. It explores the complex interactions of class, market, and state as they have affected the formulation and application of agricultural policy decisions since the New Deal, showing how divisions and coalitions within Southern, Corn Belt, and Wheat Belt agriculture were centr…
Life after the regime
Politics of Food Supply
The Vanishing Free Market
In this paper, I compare the formation of food regimes during British and US hegemony, which were mirror-images in terms of the degree of free trade and state regulation as well as the direction of trade flow of grains. Many scholars recognize that the foundation for each regime was laid by the national policy and dominant political coalition in the world-economic hegemon, but my analysis pays particular attention to the divisions and coalitions …
Southern Farmers and Their Stories
Sowing the Seeds of Their Own Destruction
In this article, I examine the relationship between class, state and market. I analyse the process of class transformation, tracing the demise of the Southern planters. Scholars analysing the retrenchment of US agricultural policy in the 1970s frequently overlook the profound influence that this class segment had on the agricultural policy of price supports and production controls. Yet, this policy of supply management contributed to the transfor…
Maintaining the Coalition
The author compares the trajectories of three U.S. policies from 1935 to 1952: the Agricultural Adjustment Act (AAA), the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA), and the Social Security Act (SSA). Agricultural policy expanded beyond the New Deal, labor policy was severely weakened, and social security saw only minor changes. Why? Class coalitions strongly influenced the trajectories of these policies. The coalition supporting the AAA largely maintai…
Consuming the surplus
The number of animals raised and slaughtered for food in the U.S. has increased dramatically since 1945. We examine how two factors have been fundamental in this expansion of “meat” consumption: the market and the state. U.S. agricultural policies that emerged form the New Deal centered on price supports and production controls. While these policies were aimed at controlling supply, they instead spurred intensive and industrial techniques that re…

Power in the Margins
The Roller Coaster of Class Conflict
Most attempts to explain voter turnout in presidential elections focus on either of two general types of factors: individual characteristics of voters or the “shape” of political institutions. This article moves beyond such analyses by applying insights of class segment and social movement analyses to U.S. voter turnout from 1840 to 1996, Beginning with political changes in the late 1800s, I isolate four periods during which turnout rates changed…
