Book Synopsis Essays on the Transformation of India's Agrarian Economy by : Chiranjib Sen
Download or read book Essays on the Transformation of India's Agrarian Economy written by Chiranjib Sen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-06-14 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central problem to which this book, first published in 1984, is addressed is the transformation of agrarian structure as it historically evolved in India. The term ‘structure’, however, has multiple meanings. The sense in which the term is used refers to the system of production, including the pattern of its composition in terms of micro-units of production, and the social and economic relations by which they are integrated. This concrete analysis and examination of the evidence of Indian agriculture is undertaken from this perspective, and contributes to the theory of agrarian change as well as an interpretation of the development of Indian agriculture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book evaluates the relevance of classical debates on agrarian transition and extends the horizon of contemporary debates in the Indian context, linking national trends with regional experiences. It identifies new dynamics in agrarian political economy and presents a comprehensive account of diverse aspects of capitalist transition both at theoretical and empirical levels. The essays discuss several neglected domains in agricultural economics such as discursive dimensions of agrarian relations and limitations of stereotypical binaries between capital and non-capital, rural and urban sectors, agriculture and industry, and accumulation and subsistence. With contributions from major scholars in the field, this volume will be useful to scholars and researchers of agriculture, economics, political economy, sociology, rural development and development studies.

Book Synopsis Structural Transformation and Agrarian Change in India by : Goran Djurfeldt
Download or read book Structural Transformation and Agrarian Change in India written by Goran Djurfeldt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The landlord and his emaciated labourer are symbolic of Indian agriculture. However, this relationship has now changed as large landowners have fallen from their superior position. This volume explores how this emblematic pair is becoming a thing of the past. Structural Transformation and Agrarian Change in India investigates whether family labour farms are gaining prominence as a consequence of the structural transformation of the economy. The authors work alongside Weberian methodology of ideal types and develop different types of family farms; among them family labour farms that rely mainly on family workers, contrasted with capitalist farms that depend on hired labour. Agriculture is shrinking as a part of the total GDP at the same time as agricultural labour is shrinking as part of the total labour force. The changing agrarian structure is explored with the use of unique long-term survey data and statistical models. Results show that India is approaching farm structures that are typical of East and South East Asia, with pluriactive smallholders as the norm. This book successfully criticizes popular narratives about Indian agricultural development as well as simplistic evolutionist, Marxist or neoclassical prognoses. It is of great importance to those who study development economics, development studies and South Asian economics.

Book Synopsis Agricultural Progress in Western India by : G. Keatinge
Download or read book Agricultural Progress in Western India written by G. Keatinge and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Progress in Western India Ten years ago I published a book, entitled "Rural Economy in the Bombay Deccan," in which I attempted to give an account of the agricultural facts of the Bombay Deccan. The object of the present book is to estimate the progress that is being made in agriculture in the Bombay Presidency, to analyse the causes of agricultural progress in India and other countries, and the conditions in which it takes place. The obstacles to such progress are also indicated, and the outlines of a general agricultural policy are suggested. If the facts of the situation are not always made clear in this book, a reference to the previous book will probably give the information required. This book is written with reference to the Bombay Presidency, but the facts and arguments stated apply very largely to the other ruotwari tracts of India, and have a bearing on the agricultural problems of any country where small holdings exist or are aimed at.

Book Synopsis Shareholder Cities by : Sai Balakrishnan
Download or read book Shareholder Cities written by Sai Balakrishnan and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2019-10-04 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic corridors—ambitious infrastructural development projects that newly liberalizing countries in Asia and Africa are undertaking—are dramatically redefining the shape of urbanization. Spanning multiple cities and croplands, these corridors connect metropolises via high-speed superhighways in an effort to make certain strategic regions attractive destinations for private investment. As policy makers search for decentralized and market-oriented means for the transfer of land from agrarian constituencies to infrastructural promoters and urban developers, the reallocation of property control is erupting into volatile land-based social conflicts. In Shareholder Cities, Sai Balakrishnan argues that some of India's most decisive conflicts over its urban future will unfold in the regions along the new economic corridors where electorally strong agrarian propertied classes directly encounter financially powerful incoming urban firms. Balakrishnan focuses on the first economic corridor, the Mumbai-Pune Expressway, and the construction of three new cities along it. The book derives its title from a current mode of resolving agrarian-urban conflicts in which agrarian landowners are being transformed into shareholders in the corridor cities, and the distributional implications of these new land transformations. Shifting the focus of the study of India's contemporary urbanization away from megacities to these in-between corridor regions, Balakrishnan explores the production of uneven urban development that unsettles older histories of agrarian capitalism and the emergence of agrarian propertied classes as protagonists in the making of urban real estate markets. Shareholder Cities highlights the possibilities for a democratic politics of inclusion in which agrarian-urban encounters can create opportunities for previously excluded groups to stake new claims for themselves in the corridor regions.
