Agricultural and rural economics

Como parte de las actividades emprendidas entre los meses de enero a Diciembre de 2016 del Cuerpo Académico "Economía, Sociedad y Fiscalidad", adscrito al Instituto de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades de la Universidad Tecnológica de la Mixteca, presentamos al público lector el segundo volumen de una serie de estudios realizados por cada uno de los miembros que integran este equipo; trabajos de investigación que fueron desarrollados bajo líneas argumentativas que tratan de describir y visibilizar las diferentes problemáticas que existen en la región de la mixteca oaxaqueña.

Fundamentados en un diagnóstico de la agricultura en México, y desde un enfoque regional para estudiar cómo la liberalización de la economía ha transformado el mundo rural, ésta obra muestra cómo las políticas públicas aplicadas en el ámbito rural lejos de generar círculos virtuosos de productividad han aumentado la diferenciación entre los productores agrícolas concentrando oportunidades y beneficios, lo que resulta en una indeseable profundización de las desigualdades económicas y sociales preexistentes.

Esta obra ofrece un panorama original para pensar críticamente las relaciones de poder existentes en la agricultura contemporánea.
