The book offers a fresh perspective on the Khmer Rouge's agricultural policies, challenging the common view of their management as irrational and dangerous. By examining the transition from farms to agriculture in Cambodia within the global economic context, Tyner reveals significant connections between the Khmer Rouge's practices and agrarian capitalism. His research critiques the simplistic Marxist narrative associated with the regime, suggesting a more complex relationship between political economy and the realities of Cambodian agricultural practices.
