Most of the popular works of contemporary farmers are written by autogrowers, and almost all of them are "returning" the movements of the land written by the participants. As Rebecca Gould pointed out, with regard to anti-cultural continuous movement, "family owners tend to create as much text as vegetables" (Gould 2005: 25). These texts are roughly divided into two categories. The first works are autobiographical works such as "My Sleeping Place" by Peter Coyote, "All Loss Farm" by Raymond Mungo, "Huerfano: memoir of life in anti-traditional culture" by Roberta Price. 1998; Mungo 1970; Price 2004). The second category is a way to obtain books and magazines, including hundreds of books. If you live in modern America, are interested in farmers and have reading habits, these are works that are found on bookstores and shelves in local libraries.

By the end of the 1960s and the beginning of the 1970s, the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights Movement had antipathies that questioned the realities of reality in every aspect of personal and political life. A popular book, "Teach as a Disruptive Activity" (Postman & Weingartner, 1969) attacked the traditional way known as "educational institution". Under the direction of the times new arguments about homework and other educational activities are emerging. The way of looking at anti-homework is reminiscent of a moderate discussion at the beginning of the 20th century - again, homework is believed to give excessive pressure to students.
