‎The End Of The Peasantry: The Rural Labor Movement in Northeast Brazil, 1961-1988 [Signed]‎

‎Pittsburgh, University of Pittsburgh Press, 1997. Octavo, 235 x 155 mm, (xxi) 232 pp. Paperback. Includes two maps, many tables and footnotes, three appendixes, a glossary, a bibliography and an index. List of contents at the beginning of the book. "The rural labor movement played a surprisingly active role in Brazil’s transition to democracy in the 1980s. While in most Latin American countries rural labor was conspicuously marginal, in Brazil, an expanded, secularized, and centralized movement organized strikes, staged demonstrations for land reform, demanded political liberalization, and criticized the government’s environmental policies. In this ground-breaking book, Anthony W. Pereira explains this transition as the result of two intertwined processes - the modernization of agricultural production and the expansion of the welfare state into the countryside - and explores the political consequences of these processes, occurring not only in Latin America but in much of the Third World." Extensively SIGNED BY AUTHOR in 1998 behind the front cover, to a friend working at Oxfam. A rare signature in an unusual book going way farther into detail than most books about Brazil written in English.‎
