美国的危机。S.农业部门被置于全球经济体系动态的背景下。这些动态在美国产生了相互关联且往往相似的结果。S.和第三世界。农业危机是一个窗口,可以看到国内和国际经济进程之间的联系,特别是金融机构和跨国公司日益增长的作用。小型农业银行和大型国际金融机构对债务问题的反应越来越有限,这对美国和第三世界国家的发展都产生了可怕的后果。全球影响的产生是多方面的,主要包括:(1)银行(及其他金融机构)对美国债务的反应; S.第三世界;(2)美国和第三世界农业商品价格的经济影响;(3)农业失调和粮食供应的人类后果;(4)美国农业政策的环境后果。S.在第三世界。本文讨论的影响的起源和程度表明,农业政策的市场效率方法不足以维持经济活力或满足国家和全球的人类需求。
Crises in the U. S. agricultural sector are placed in the context of the dynamics of the global economic system. These dynamics generate connected and often similar outcomes in the U. S. and the Third World. The farm crisis serves as a window to see links between domestic and international economic processes, and especially the growing role of financial institutions and transnational corporations. Ever-more constrained responses to debt problems by small farm banks and giant international financial institutions have dire developmental consequences for both the U.S. and Third World countries. Global impacts are generated in many ways, which include: (1) bank (and other financial institution) responses to debt in the U. S. and Third World; (2) the economic impact of agricultural commodity prices in the U.S. and the Third World; (3) the human consequences of agricultural dislocation and food availability; and (4) the environmental outcomes of farm policy in the U. S. and in the Third World. The origin and extent of the impacts discussed in this paper suggest that a market efficiency approach to agricultural policy is inadequate to sustain economic vitality or meet human needs nationally and globally.
