Which farm workers are we talking about? Social differentiation processes in European rural history
Université de Girona
An international scientific coordination network (GDRI) “CRIses and Changes in the European Countryside in the long run” (CRICEC).
The definition and classification of social groups has frequently been confused with the definition of specific social structures.Perhaps that is why defining and classifying social groups has not always facilitated the analysis of the role that social dynamics,determined by those social groups, might have had in the structural changes of a society. The works presented in this seminar propose ways of defining and classifying social groups that allow the social dynamics behind some structural changes to be studied. In particular, to facilitate the comparison between different historical societies, social groups will be defined in relation to property rights. Special attention will also be paid to the groups of seasonal farm workers and the processes of impoverishment and enrichment, with the understanding that these processes may be fundamental to studying differentiation processes within the same social group and the processes of emergence or decline among middle class social groups.
