　　特邀学人简介：
　　1950年出生，成长于荷兰北部的弗里斯兰。荷兰瓦赫宁根大学教授，意大利农业部部长顾问。曾任荷兰瓦赫宁根大学农村社会学系系主任。主要研究领域包括农民研究、农业方式、农村发展、土地改革、食品市场、技术变迁等。他在荷兰农业以及整个欧洲农业的研究领域取得了丰硕成果，对欧洲农业史研究做出了杰出贡献。他将欧洲、北美与第三世界国家的社会学研究与发展研究相结合，汇聚形成了一套新的理论方法，对农业劳动力过程、商品化、技术应用、文化传统以及行动者的能动性等进行了深入分析。代表作有《被盗用的未来》（1977）、《劳动力、市场与农业生产》（1990）、《超越现代化》（1995）、《揭秘农场主》（2003）、《新小农阶级》（2008）、《小农与农业艺术》（2013）等。其中《新小农阶级》被译成多种语言，在欧洲和第三世界国家产生了深远影响，“新小农阶级”成为理解全球农业与农村变迁的重要概念。
　　Born in Friesland, North Netherlands in 1950, Jan Douwe van der Ploeg is a professor and the former Dean of Rural Sociology at the University of Wageningen (The Netherlands). He is also the adviser to the Italian Minister of Agriculture. His major research areas include peasant studies, styles of farming, rural development, land reforms, food markets and technological change. He has had many achievements in exploring agriculture in the Netherlands and in Europe from the perspective of development sociology and makes prominent contributions to studies on European agrarian history. By combining sociological studies in Europe, North America and the third world with development sociology, professor van der Ploeg contributed to the forging of a new powerful theoretical approach, exploring rural labour process analysis, commoditization, differential responses to technology development, cultural repertoires and the agency of actors. His representative works include The Stolen Future (1977); Labour, Markets and Agricultural Production (1990); Beyond Modernization: The Impact of Endogenous Rural Development (1995); The Virtual Farmer: Past, Present and Future of the Dutch Peasantry (2003); The New Peasantries: Struggles for Autonomy and Sustainability in an Era of Empire and Globalization (2008) and Peasants and the Art of Farming: A Chayanovian Manifesto (2013). One of his books - The New Peasantries (2008) has been translated into multiple languages, exerting profound impacts in Europe and the third world countries. The conception of ‘the new peasantries’ has gained great significance in understanding global agricultural and agrarian change.

　　“This is perhaps the *most* incredible thing I have read literally in *years*. I am laying down a challenge to all my friends. I challenge you to read just the first 3 pages or so of this book, and tell me it is not incredible, amazing, fantastic. Please. How long could it take to read 3 pages?”
