Down on the Farm with Tom Willey

December 2, ’16: Rural Sociologist Dean MacCannell’s reaffirmation of Walter Goldschmidt’s theory

In 1975 PhD Rural Sociologist Dean MacCannell joined UC Davis’ faculty with little knowledge of the controversy in which he soon became embroiled. MacCannell’s reaffirmation of Walter Goldschmidt’s theory that large-scale agribusiness degrades the wellbeing of Valley communities nearly cost him his job, and threatened his life. Join Dean and “Down on the Farm” host Tom Willey in conversation.
