On behalf of the peasantry

the International Agrarian Office or Green International in Interwar Europe (1921-1938)

Abstract

Agrarian parties reached their golden age in the Interwar years, namely in Scandinavia and Central and Eastern Europe, although historiography does not entirely reflect their important role in the politicization of peasantry and the political developments after the Versailles Treaty. Their strongest expression was a coordinating office with its headquarters in Prague, the so-called Green International, aimed at coordinating the programme and practice of agrarian parties. Based on primary and secondary bibliography, as well as archival sources and press, an overview will be presented of its history, which will be discussed within the context of the processes of policitization in the countryside in the first half of the xxth century.
