The reforms that the European Union’s CAP underwent during the last three decades were intended to make it less trade-distorting, more taxpayer-friendly and more able to meet the new challenges of environmental concerns and rural development/territorial cohesion. The outcome of the reforms has, however, contradicted these objectives, with the controversies being reiterated by the mainstream theoretical approaches in the field. European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy Reforms argues that these controversies are due to reductionist, rationalist and idealist assumptions with regard to the object of inquiry applied by mainstream approaches. It proposes an alternative critical approach that takes into account the role of real material factors. Critical realism is not just an alternative explanation of CAP reforms but an alternative theory of how explanations can be made, which enables readers to reflect upon and endorse the results of existing lines of research in proceeding towards deeper level theory."--Cover Výrazy tezauru společná zemědělská politika * reforma společné zemědělské politiky * zemědělsko-obchodní vztahy * členský stát EU * 2. polovina 20. století * 1. polovina 21. století Klasifikační znaky 5606 - Zemědělská politika 5611 - Zemědělské struktury a zemědělská výroba ISBN 978-1-137-57277-6 Copy count 1, currently available 1 Document kind Monografie
