Abstract

[fre] L'économie rurale reste aux États-Unis une profession très active. Cette note identifie ses formes organisatrices particulières qui ont assuré sa vitalité. La profession n'en a pas moins été récemment critiquée pour son éloignement croissant de la réalité et son ésotérisme. Différents moyens pour maintenir un équilibre entre contributions théoriques, empirisme et résolution des problèmes actuels incluent le rôle critique d'une organisation professionnelle et la soumission partielle de la profession à la demande pour ses propres services. [eng] The United States agricultural economics profession remains very lively. This note identifies its specific organizational forms which have helped it maintain its vitality. The profession has recently been criticized for its increasing divorce from the problems of agriculture. Several means for striking a balance between theory, empiricism, and problem solving include the critical role of a professional organization and partial submission of the profession to the demand for its own services.
