Funded Activity Summary
Globally Engaged? Responses to Neoliberal Globalisation among Family Farmers in Australia. The pursuit of free trade regimes often requires significant adjustment at the farm level, which can carry high costs, both for farm families and governments in the payment of farm adjustment monies. Presently, there is little understanding about how Australian farmers think about and act under the conditions of a neoliberal, globally competitive world market. The project provides a unique insight into the effects of, and responses to, these conditions among farmers. It will contribute to the international scholarship on globalisation and rural studies and will assist governments develop policies more sensitive to farmers' needs. It will also be the starting point for comparable research projects internationally.Funded Activity Details
