Sociological Aspects of Agricultural Revitalization

Svetozar Livada

Abstract

The author analyzes sociological
aspects of agricultural revitalization,
beginning from a region as a place
of living, from a rural type
settlement as a way of living, and
from people and their work. He
stresses that in post-war Yugoslav
development unregulated
industrialization was accompanied
by urbanization, but not as a way
of life but as the development of
village-towns.
In his opinion the basic
developmental problems of
agriculture are: the insufficient
socialization of resources and work
in agriculture, the unsolved
relationship between farming and
stock breeding, small farms, the
unfavourable socio-demographic
structure of the rural and farming
population, the parallel existence of
five farming modalities, the
marginalization of the land as a
means of production, and so on.
These problems are especially
prominent in the mountain regions
of the country.
From the aspect of population
policy and the spatial population
distribution, these relations must be
balanced by a revitalization of the
rural and agricultural population.
This makes necessary a
transformation in the complete
farming policy, beginning by the
reorganization and revitalization of
agriculture.
