From Theory to the Field and Back Again: Fieldwork‐Based Research on Social Differentiation in Agrarian Studies

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, Volume 26, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Fieldwork is the cornerstone of empirical research in agrarian studies. Discussion about methodological options has, however, not kept up with the innovative conceptual developments taking place within the discipline.
