Contents Introduction Fieldwork and methodology 1. Practical, Usable Value Theory Value theory in anthropology Specific problems of value and gender, localized in a Leonese village 2. The Casa as a Unit of Production, Reproduction, and Consumption: The First Half of the 20th Century Covering an extended time period to study processes Demography and social structure at the beginning of the 20th century The agent of decision: person, family or casa? The casa as a unit of production, reproduction, and consumption What is the casa? Who are the members of the casa? Rural capital Value and gender during the first half of the 20th century The distribution of work among men and women Interiorness and exteriorness Inheritance and differential uses of rural capital: men’s permanence and women’s mobility Reproducing the casa Married couples and children: the agents involved in reproducing the casa Life courses and vital conjunctures Orientation of the casa toward the future 3. Local Dimensions of a General Transformation: 1960–1979 Changing circumstances: industrialization, emigration, and mechanization Life courses and vital conjunctures The appearance of the categories of optionality, tastes, and preferences Emigration and the accumulation of capital: You only need land to marry if you are going to stay in the village Mechanization The introduction of milk production Values and gender repositioned: rural capital and interior and exterior spaces Rural capital and men’s and women’s uses of it Interior and exterior spaces: the tasks change, but not the positions The casa reproduces itself, but only in some of its children Emigration makes it possible to concentrate rural capital, a limited resource Mechanization as a catalyst of the process The casas reproduce themselves, but only in some of their children 4. Casas and Sociedades: Splitting Meanings at the End of the 20th Century Changing circumstances: economic crisis and the reshaping of the family farm The economic crisis and the reassessment of the casa as a job position for young men Mechanization in the fields and in the stables Reconfiguration of the family farm: the sociedades Option, taste, and preference: decisive factors in the formation of sociedades When the children do not reproduce the casa Demographic profile, 1980–2000 The configuration of the households, 1980–2000 Values and gender repositioned: inheritance, schooling and life courses Sociedades and their consequences “The differences are less noticeable” Changes in schooling and their interactions with gender configurations and vital conjunctures Separating men’s and women’s life courses The casa as a unit of production, consumption, and reproduction no longer exists 5. Conclusions Some considerations about rural society Rural society is not static, nor has it been in the recent past People make their decision in the framework of their immediate, relevant social environment, such as the family or the casa The processes of change develop along the axes of the structure that has existed up to that moment: Gender is a main axis that structures rural life Ambivalence toward rural life The unexpected results of the changes Considerations for a theory of value in relation to gender Social subjects in their fields of value: processes of change People The casas The village Suggestions for a theory of value in relation to gender List of Diagrams, Figures, Graphs, and Tables Works Cited Index
