Abstract

Participation in politics or the public domain has often been linked to material benefits. Looks at farm households in Ireland and concludes that those which are the most exposed to economic risks participate more in the public domain. Those most active in the agricultural debate are those whose business interests are the most vulnerable to changes in the political and economic environment surrounding farming.
