Family Farms in Rural Communities: Rural Social Change in Modern and Postmodern World

Summary/Abstract: Bogusław Gałęski has created a three-level scheme including: farming families, local communities and farmers as an occupational group as a part of nation. Jan Turowski has constructed a more sophisticated perspective on rural social life and its changes. The whole process has been analyzed on a base of four major theoretical perspectives connected to levels mentioned earlier. At first, theory of professionalization of peasant work should be mentioned. Moreover, theories of autonomization of peasant families and individuals inside families should be considered. At the end, the process of reintegration of local communities changing from primary to secondary social groups should be presented. All these processes have been analyzed in the context of diffusion of innovations leading to a modern society. However, due to globalization changes such an approach should take into consideration some other changes leading to a postmodern society.
