Abstract

RESUMEN: Este trabajo analiza el proceso de desarrollo agrícola observado en el Poniente Almeriense desde 1960. En esta comarca del sudeste de Andalucía se han producido cambios socioeconómicos que cuestionan las teorías clásicas de la modernización, pues la compleja agricultura intensiva fue practicada por familias de labradores sin formación escolar y con escasos recursos. El desarrollo impulsado por los agricultores, originarios de comarcas pobres y subdesarrolladas como la Alpujarra de Granada, supuso un gran cambio en los flujos migratorios. Así, a partir de 1990, Almería deja de ser una zona de emigración para convertirse en una zona de atracción de población inmigrada. ABSTRACT: This paper analyzes the process of agricultural development in the West Coast of Almería observed since 1960. In this county of Andalusia has happened socio-economic changes which diverge of the patters of modernization theories, because the complex intensive agriculture was practiced by unlettered peasant families with few resources. The development initiated by farmers, which came from poor and underdeveloped regions like the Alpujarra, resulted in an important population change. Thus, since 1990, Almería becomes in an emergent economic area of immigrants.
