This doctoral dissertation research investigates agrarian protest in France from 1980 to 1995. During this period, agrarian collective action was chronic and ubiquitous, frequently crossing national borders. For example, demonstrations in Brussels and Geneva included French farmers, and protests in Strasbourg against the Common Agricultural Policy Reforms included farmers from France, Germany, and Switzerland. Protest and network data will be collected in selected French localities to answer the following questions. (1) What are the sources of agrarian protest? (2) What effect does agrarian contention have on institutionalized agricultural politics? (3) Does this recent pattern of farmers' mobilization reflect the Europeanization of the agricultural conflict system? The research will test the hypothesis that expanding political opportunities in the 1980s enabled dissident farmers to broaden their constituency and to establish new interorganizational links. As a result, farmers forged a common front against the neocorporatist agreements that previously dictated agricultural policy. This project contributes to the research on multi-level governance in the European Union and the transnationalization of contention by exploring relations between the "national" and the "local" political arenas of agricultural politics, and by examining the concrete organizational foundations of "multilevel governance."

本博士论文的研究调查了1980年至1995年法国的土地抗议。在这一时期，农业集体行动是长期和普遍存在的，经常跨越国界。例如，在布鲁塞尔和日内瓦的示威活动中，法国农民就参与了;在斯特拉斯堡，法国、德国和瑞士的农民也参与了反对共同农业政策改革的抗议活动。将在法国选定地区收集抗议和网络数据，以回答以下问题。(1)农民抗议的根源是什么？(2)土地争夺对制度化的农业政治有什么影响？(3)这种最近农民动员的模式是否反映了农业冲突体系的欧洲化？这项研究将检验这样一个假设，即1980年代政治机会的扩大使持不同政见的农民能够扩大其选民范围，并建立新的组织间联系。结果，农民们组成了一个共同阵线，反对以前支配农业政策的新社团主义协议。本项目通过探讨农业政治中“国家”与“地方”政治舞台之间的关系，以及通过考察“多级治理”的具体组织基础，为欧盟多级治理和争夺的跨国化研究做出了贡献。"
