Rogers traces social and environmental changes over four centuries in Pernambuco, Brazil's key northeastern sugar-growing state. Focusing particularly on the period from the end of slavery in 1888 to the late twentieth century, when human impact on the environment reached critical new levels, Rogers confronts the day-to-day world of farming--the complex, fraught, and occasionally poetic business of making sugarcane grow. Renowned Brazilian sociologist Gilberto Freyre, whose home state was Pernambuco, observed, "Monoculture, slavery, and concentrated land ownership--but principally monoculture--opened here, in the life, the landscape, and the character of our people, the deepest wounds." Inspired by Freyre's insight, Rogers tells the story of Pernambuco's wounds, describing the connections among changing agricultural technologies, landscapes and human perceptions of them, labor practices, and agricultural and economic policy. This web of interrelated factors, Rogers argues, both shaped economic progress and left extensive environmental and human damage. Combining a study of workers with analysis of their landscape, Rogers offers new interpretations of crucial moments of labor struggle, casts new light on the role of the state in agricultural change, and illuminates a legacy that influences Brazil's development even today."--pub. desc. 000438509 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000438509 650_0 $$aSugar trade$$zBrazil$$zPernambuco$$xHistory. 000438509 650_0 $$aSugarcane industry$$xEnvironmental aspects$$zBrazil$$zPernambuco$$xHistory. 000438509 650_0 $$aSugarcane industry$$xSocial aspects$$zBrazil$$zPernambuco$$xHistory. 000438509 651_0 $$aPernambuco (Brazil)$$xHistory. 000438509 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000438509 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aRogers, Thomas D., 1974-$$tDeepest wounds.$$dChapel Hill : University of North Carolina Press, 2010$$z9780807834336$$z9780807871676$$w(DLC) 2010018134$$w(OCoLC)607975601 000438509 8520_ $$bacq 000438509 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central 000438509 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=605932$$zOnline Access 000438509 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:438509$$pGLOBAL_SET 000438509 980__ $$aEBOOK 000438509 980__ $$aBIB 000438509 982__ $$aEbook 000438509 983__ $$aOnline
