The Violence of the Green Revolution: Third World Agriculture, Ecology, and Politics (Culture of the Land) - Softcover

The Green Revolution has been heralded as a political and technological achievement―unprecedented in human history.

A dedicated empiricist, Vandana Shiva takes a magnifying glass to the effects of the Green Revolution in India, examining the devastating effects of monoculture and commercial agriculture and revealing the nuanced relationship between ecological destruction and poverty.
