Preferred term

agrarian socialist movement  

Definition

  • The agrarian socialist movement took root in the rural parts of the United States at the turn of the 20th century. Economic conditions of this time help explain why farmers, an unlikely bunch to adopt Karl Marx's brand of socialism, were drawn to it.
