Abstract

The objective of the Chapter 1 is to present a general overview of the agricultural development in the world periphery to serve as an introduction to this volume, whose aim is to provide a long-term perspective that allows a better understanding of the process of agricultural transformations. This process shows great diversity, especially concerning the drivers of change in regions with low levels of development, institutional restrictions, a variety of distances to the technological frontiers, and different modalities of participation in the international markets. The big trends and stylised facts of the world core and the agriculture of the periphery are described, and the content of each chapter is briefly introduced. Finally, some concluding remarks are proposed to answer the research question: what can we learn from history?

Nächstes Kapitel Between the Engine and the Fifth Wheel: An Analytical Survey of the Shifting Roles of Agriculture in Development Theory
Fußnoten
1
The debate on the deterioration of the terms of trade of primary products has generated a large number of studies, most of which have concluded that this deterioration did not exist in the period indicated by Prebisch and Singer (at least until 1914), but has been very important since the First World War (WWI). The deterioration has been more marked in certain periods in the form of shocks (the inter-war years and the 1980s), without a return to the initial situation in any persistent and continuous way as predicted by those authors. See Prebisch (1950), Singer (1950), Grilli and Yang (1988), Hadass and Williamson (2003), Ocampo and Parra-Lancourt (2010) and Serrano and Pinilla (2011).

Latin American structuralism, characterised especially by the economic thought developed by the ECLAC, is one of the most important representatives of this theoretical conceptualisation.

1870–1938. We consider the data presented in Federico (2004) referred to agricultural output, real index (1913 = 100) (Statistical Appendix, Table I) and “world” shares in (Table 6) regarding North Western Europe , Southern Europe, the USA and Japan as the “core” and the rest of countries as the “periphery”. For this we deducted Japan from Asia and the USA from Western Settlement. For Japan, we used three series: Gross Domestic Product by Industry at Market Prices (1985–1940), Deflator Agriculture, Forestry and Fishery (1985–1940) and Value Added in Agriculture: 1934–1936 Prices (1874–1936) from the Long-Term Economic Statistics (LTES) Database. For the USA, we used three series: Farm Gross Product (Million Dollars, 1913 prices); Gross Farm Income (Million Dollars, 1913 prices), and Gross Farm Income (Million Dollars 1913 prices, chained) from the Historical Statistics of the United States, Millennial Edition Online.

1950–2010. As Federico (2008), we consider information of Gross production in agriculture (2004–2006 = 100) from FAO statistical database from 1961 to 2010, and complement the previous—partial—data with Federico (2008)’s estimates for the 1950s. We select the same “Core” countries that for the period 1870–1938 y consider the rest of the countries as “Periphery”. We elaborate weighted indices according to the shares that represented the Gross Production Values (current million US$) in 1991–1992.
