The text reveals that, in many instances, membership has resulted in a return to subsistence production, increased insecurity and a reinforcement of kinship obligations. Thus instead of treating the European Union as an elite project and voicing the support of various other segments of the population, this volume shows how broad parts of the rural population have been affected by and engaged in processes of change following Lithuania’s accession – changes that threaten to have a large impact upon the future of the country’s family structures and its farming demographic.Anthem Studies in Development and GlobalizationFarms, SmallLithuaniaSocial stratificationLithuaniaLithuaniaSocial conditions21st centuryLithuaniaPolitics and government21st centuryFarms, SmallSocial stratification330.94793Knudsen Ida Harboe1027007UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910461086003321New Lithuania in old hands2442236UNINA
