,A, relatively large literature examines the responses of households and individuals to economic decline. Although analysts look at a variety of responses, most studies remain inwardly directed toward households' or members' adaptations and survival strategies. This study extends [he literature by examining outwardly directed political action. Data are from a 12-state study of farming couples during the 1980sfarm crisis. We link to literatures, one on political action, which has tended to ignore the household, and the second that has focused on internal, household responses to change, but neglected political action. We find support for hypotheses indicating the importance of the household and gender-based relationships to political responses during economic decline.
