Geopolitics and the Green Revolution: Wheat, Genes, and the Cold War
Perkins, John H. (Member of the Faculty of the Department of Biology and History of Environment and Technology, Member of the Faculty of the Department of Biology and History of Environment and Technology, Evergreen State College, USA)
Perkins explores why four countries each sought to develop high yielding wheat production. National security concerns and management of foreign exchange were prime motivators of the new technologies, a relationship that has not been previously developed in studies of agricultural modernization.
