Book Farmers in Rebellion Editor Donna A. Barnes - Fаrmеrѕ in Rеbеllіоn: The Rіѕе аnd Fаll оf the Southern Fаrmеrѕ Allіаnсе аnd Pеорlе'ѕ Pаrtу іn Tеxаѕ. The years after the civil war brought the fight to the southern farms, where the economic pillar of the south of cotton fell steadily in price. Driven by difficult times, farmers gathered in Lampasas County, Texas, in 1877 to discuss what could be done. From these modest assets emerged from the National Union of Farmers and the Industrial Union, later known as the Southern Farmers Alliance, a strong protest movement played an essential role in the formation of a new political force, the Popular Party in 1892. In the South Steel,, A large number of voters left the new party of the Democratic Party. But despite this support, the decline of the Popular Party after 1894 was rapid.

Rebellion farmers tell a compelling story about these crucial and closely related movements. Looking for Donna a. Barnes in his evolutionary history, and raises important questions such as: under what circumstances are protest movements still weak? In what conditions do you flourish, do large numbers of supporters gather? Under what circumstances are successful protest movements their impulse and death? The author explores these complex questions through the skillful use of archival data that allows him to reflect on the suitability of previous social responses to these questions.

Farmers in Rebellion is a book in detail and scope in their vision of a crucial turning point in the growth of populist nationalist movements. The interest of sociologists, historians and political scientists, which represents a significant investment, constitutes an essential contribution to our understanding of the central time and history of Texas.
