Description

Explore the profound changes occurring in the American countryside with Under The Blade: The Conversion Of Agricultural Landscapes. Published by Routledge, this work examines the rapid transformation of rural areas into small lot subdivisions. Through specific case studies, such as the subdivision of the last farm in Des Plaines, Illinois, and land sales in Nebraska and Wisconsin, the text illustrates the economic and physical shifts in land use. This book examines the cumulative impact of thousands of individual decisions that lead to the loss of at least 1.4 million acres of rural land every year. It provides a deep look at how these changes fragment large areas and affect landscape function. For students and professionals in political science and social sciences, this text offers a clear perspective on the real-world consequences of land use zoning and the devouring of agricultural land.
