The Yearbook of Socioeconomics in Agriculture is edited by the Swiss Society for Agricultural Economics and Sociology. It is a new peer reviewed periodical which is designed to fill a gap between journals about Agricultural Economics and journals about Agricultural Sociology. Devoted to the advancement of socio-economics, it deals with the analytical, political and moral questions arising at the intersection between economy and society in agriculture and rural areas. Articles in the Yearbook of Socioeconomics in Agriculture explore how the rural economy is or should be governed by social relations, institutional rules, political decisions, and cultural values. They also consider how the agricultural sector affects the society of which it is part, for example by breaking up old institutional forms and giving rise to new ones. Papers will be considered regardless whether they are theoretical or empirical in nature and whether they use quantitative or qualitative methods.
