Ebook: Das Fleisch der Republik: Ein Lebensmittel und die Entstehung der modernen Landwirtschaft in Westdeutschland 1950–1990

Karl Christian Führer examines the origins of modern, high-performance agriculture in West Germany.

By looking at the product "meat," he thus presents a fascinating economic and social history of the Federal Republic.
