The original Changeons de politique agricole (2002, Mille et une nuits, Paris) was produced for the Confédération Paysanne, Europe's most important radical farmers' trade union. Herman and Kuper trace the root of such problems as mad cow disease, fertilizer contamination of water, and obesity and associated illnesses to what they call productivism in agriculture: the drive to increase output without limit, and the consequent search for ever more efficient methods of production. They describe and defend the set of saner policies proposed by the Confederation. Distributed in the US by Stylus. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
