About the Book
Nowhere on earth is the relationship between man and land more complicated or seemingly as intractable as in South Asia. India, with its 1.37 billion people—most of whom work the land for a living—has experienced famine and scarcity on a scale unknown elsewhere. This book investigates the causes and remedies of this ongoing crisis.
The chapters in this volume examine issues related to land, tenure, and the peasant in South Asia from a variety of academic perspectives, including history, anthropology, economics, geography, political science, and sociology. Each chapter provides fresh insights into specific localities and challenges, offering a nuanced understanding of how land, labor, and power have been intertwined and transformed over time.
Contributed by specialists in their respective fields, the essays explore the intricate ways in which the relationships between land, lords, and labor have evolved, making this volume an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding the socio-economic complexities of South Asia’s agrarian landscape.
