Agrarianism

Agrarianism is a social and political philosophy that advocates for a return to subsistence agriculture, family farming, widespread property ownership, and political decentralization.[1][2] Those who adhere to agrarianism tend to value traditional forms of local community over urban modernity.[3] Agrarian political parties sometimes aim to support the rights and sustainability of small farmers and poor peasants against the wealthy in society.[4]
