Document Summary
The rst one entailed house drawn implements and new types of lows but were being pulled by draught animals. **** they are not common expect with the largest farms and ones that are generally not family owned. ** once this happened, most of the working animals disappeared. Shift of agrarian protest to the west: prairie populism. Mixes the core of political ideologies of socialism, liberalism and conservatism. Opposition to elites (political or economic) advocates more power to the people the producers of society. Saskachewan vs alberta -> they had the rise of the populist movement but weren"t exactly the same. > reality is that they are not all the same. Mcpherson thesis -> political not populism theory -> family farm size units that were producing for a market, wheat, but it was not the same as alberta. Focus on the capitalist elites and their allies in mainstream political parties (liberals and conservatives)
