Description
Summary:The agricultural field is experiencing several transformations which embody ways of thinking drawn from the neoliberal repertoire. However, there is no conceptual reference to neoliberalism in the debates and analyzes around agricultural policy in Morocco, even less with regard to family farming. The objective of this article is to analyze to what extent neoliberal practices in the agricultural world are not experienced as a break but make sense with ancestral practices; it is an imperial imagination familiar with the indirect mode of government, particularly with delegations. The results show that Family Farming, particularly under Pillar II projects, is governed by delegation to characters chosen according to a historically constructed political imagination. Thus, this study would contribute to a new reading of the modes of government of family farming, as much as it would promote new approaches making it possible to restore historical sequences of indirect government of the agricultural sector in Morocco.
