How did evolutionary changes and revolutionary-repressive changes affect the property status of peasant farms, the formation of the middle class in the countryside, the development of local self-government, the realization of human, social and natural resources of the agricultural sector, socio-political and socio-economic structure of the state as a whole? Its authors explore the real internal challenges and external threats of the hasty launch of an oligarchic land market model imposed by international creditors at the behest of rent-seeking business groups and global speculators that brutally ignores the constitutional rights of the Ukrainian people and the interests of the Ukrainian peasantry. Keywords:land privatization; concentration level of land resources; rent-oriented business groups
