Concept information
Preferred term
agrarianism
Definition
- Agrarianism is a political and philosophical orientation that emphasizes the purported moral virtue, practical wisdom, environmental sustainability, and political usefulness of agricultural pursuits, in particular when such pursuits are practiced by large numbers of people, preferably by their own labor on land they own or who at least exercise some authority over themselves. Many proponents of agrarianism do not embrace all or even most particulars of this orientation, seeing it instead as merely an appropriate label for those who see value in farming and a more rustic or “simple” rural life as opposed to more commercial or urban transactions and lifestyles.
