Abstract
[fre] L'image «exécrable» des agriculteurs et du monde rural, répandue il y a cinquante ou cent ans, s'est radicalement modifiée. Aux yeux de l'opinion publique, l'agriculture est désormais un atout pour l'économie française, notamment à l'exportation. C'est un secteur qu'il faut aider, car il a de l'avenir et que la vie à la campagne est plus agréable qu'en ville. Les agriculteurs eux-mêmes pensent qu'ils sont devenus de véritables chefs d'entreprise qui gèrent leur exploitation selon les méthodes les plus modernes possibles et en tenant compte des lois du marché. La construction européenne les inquiète un peu, mais ce sont de chauds partisans de l'euro. L'étude repose sur la lecture d'auteurs «anciens» et «modernes», ainsi que sur les enquêtes d'opinion réalisées depuis 1945. [eng] Fifty years of public opinion polls: farmers seen by other french people and by themselves - The «awful» image of farmers and rural areas, largely spread fifty or one hundred years ago, has entirely changed. For public opinion, agriculture is, nowadays, a good stake for French economy, especially for exportation. It has to be helped, because it has a promising future and life is better in rural areas than in towns. Farmers themselves think they have become true managers who run their farm according to the most modern methods and to the market's laws. They are a little afraid by the European building, but are keen supporters of the «euro».This paper in based on the study of old and recent authors and of public opinion polls since 1945.
