Abstract

[fre] Les agriculteurs, dans les années d'après guerre, ont dû faire face à une sévère alternative : adopter le « progrès » c'est-à-dire de nouveaux modes de production et de vie ou, à plus ou moins brève échéance, disparaître. Dans les années 1970, après avoir adopté le progrès pour survivre et s'être intégré dans les rouages de l'économie nationale, bon nombre d'agriculteurs ont pris conscience de la précarité de leur situation économique malgré leurs efforts d'adaptation et de modernisation ; il faut aujourd'hui tenter de survivre au progrès. L'agriculteur a perdu son identité traditionnelle « de paysan » et la société villageoise s'est effritée sous les assauts de la société globale. Nous sommes amenés à nous interroger sur la place nouvelle de l'agriculteur dans la société nationale et sur les conditions de survie d'une société locale originale. [eng] The choice of a society - Farmers in post-war years have had to face a sharp alternative — either to adopt « progress », new production methods and a new way of life, or to disappear altogether in the near future. In the 70's many farmers who had adopted progress to survive and who had been caught up in the workings of the national economy gradually became aware of their precarious economic situation in spite of their attempts to adapt and modernize. Today they have to try to survive progress. The farmer has lost his traditional « peasant » identity and village society has crumbled before society at large. We must now reconsider the present role of farming in society as a whole and whether an original local society can survive.
