Book Synopsis The Conditions of Agricultural Growth by : Ester Boserup
Download or read book The Conditions of Agricultural Growth written by Ester Boserup and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets out to investigate the process of agrarian change from new angles and with new results. It starts on firm ground rather than from abstract economic theory. Upon its initial appearance, it was heralded as "a small masterpiece, which economic historians should read--and not simply quote"--Giovanni Frederico, Economic History Services. The Conditions of Agricultural Growth remains a breakthrough in the theory of agricultural development. In linking ethnography with economy, developmental studies reached new heights. Whereas "development" had been seen previously as the transformation of traditional communities by the introduction (or imposition) of new technologies, Ester Boserup argues that changes and improvements occur from within agricultural communities, and that improvements are governed not simply by external interference, but by those communities themselves Using extensive analyses of the costs and productivity of the main systems of traditional agriculture, Ester Boserup concludes that technical, economic, and social changes are unlikely to take place unless the community concerned is exposed to the pressure of population growth.
Book Synopsis Agrarian Change and Economic Development by : E.L. Jones
Download or read book Agrarian Change and Economic Development written by E.L. Jones and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agrarian Change and Economic Development is a landmark volume that examines the historical experience of the relationship between agrarian change and economic development. Because agriculture was until recently man's dominant occupation, scholars have traditionally drawn little attention to its immense historical importance. The essays in this book redress this balance, and illustrate the significance of the western world's escape from an overwhelmingly agrarian condition. It is therefore an ideal work for encouraging those concerned with current problems to perceive agricultural development as professional historians see it, and to question the oversimplified historical analogies commonly employed in development economics. Presenting historical examples of change within particular agricultural systems, and discussing their implications for national economic development, both social scientists and planners less concerned with historical revision will have equal reason to welcome these case studies of the long-run interaction of agrarian change and economic activity. This classic book was first published in 1969.

Book Synopsis Barriers Broken by : Venkatesh B Athreya
Download or read book Barriers Broken written by Venkatesh B Athreya and published by SAGE Publications Pvt. Limited. This book was released on 1990-08 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The result of an intensive study, Barriers Broken represents more than a systematic comparison of two major agrarian ecotypes. Is class structure associated with these ecotypes? Are variations of production ecologically grounded? How do these variations affect other levels of social formation--especially ideological and political venues? In addition to posing these questions, the authors explore issues such as: changes in the relation of production due to land reforms; patterns of generational mobility; land rent barriers to capitalist development; and consequences of credit capital for usury. By developing a quantitative methodology for studying agrarian class relations and linking an ecological analysis to class relations, technology, and patterns of agrarian change, Barriers Broken sheds new light on the current development in Third World countries. This unique volume will be of interest to students and professors in agriculture, economics, sociology, social anthropology, political science, and history. "There is something for everyone in this study. . .will enliven the areas of class analysis, research methodology, and ecological and social analysis of agrarian change." --Contemporary Sociology "In Barriers Broken, Athreya, Djurfeldt, and Lindberg provide just the kind of detailed analysis needed to refine the widely used but crude typologies current to the development literature. . . . Throughout these chapters, the authors reveal many interesting and provocative findings and offer clues and insights into the socioeconomic dynamics of rural production. . . . As a case study and research monograph, Barriers Broken is a significant contribution to the rural-development literature and will prove valuable to anyone interested in rural social relations and methods of agricultural production." --Social Forces

Book Synopsis Agricultural Development in the World Periphery by : Vicente Pinilla
Download or read book Agricultural Development in the World Periphery written by Vicente Pinilla and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together analysis on the conditions of agricultural sectors in countries and regions of the world’s peripheries, from a wide variety of international contributors. The contributors to this volume proffer an understanding of the processes of agricultural transformations and their interaction with the overall economies of Africa, Asia and Latin America. Looking at the nineteenth and twentieth centuries – the onset of modern economic growth – the book studies the relationship between agriculture and other economic sectors, exploring the use of resources (land, labour, capital) and the influence of institutional and technological factors in the long-run performance of agricultural activities. Pinilla and Willebald challenge the notion that agriculture played a negligible role in promoting economic development in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, when the impulse towards industrialization in the developing world was more impactful.

Book Synopsis Critical Perspectives on Agrarian Transition by : B. B. Mohanty
Download or read book Critical Perspectives on Agrarian Transition written by B. B. Mohanty and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-01-29 with total page 329 pages. 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 Land Policies for Equity and Growth by : Ajit Kumar Singh
Download or read book Land Policies for Equity and Growth written by Ajit Kumar Singh and published by SAGE Publications Pvt. Limited. This book was released on 2014-07-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Land Policies for Equity and Growth is perhaps the first book of its kind on land issues, including land reforms, in one of India’s most populous states—Uttar Pradesh. In its 18 chapters—authored by scholars who have spent several decades researching land issues in UP—the book sets out land policies to promote agricultural growth with equity in a state that accounts for a very significant share of the rural poor of India. The book discusses both old and new issues. While it examines the historical consequences of the Zamindari Abolition Act (1950) and the Land Ceiling Legislations (1960 and 1972) in UP, it also looks at new, emerging issues in land and agrarian relations, like land use policy (or rather its absence) in the state. It also discusses the need for modernising land records, computerising them and, most importantly, ensuring titling on the basis of ground-truthing actual landownership. This book attempts to relate land policy issues to the policy discourse in UP. It is based upon an analysis of well known as well as new data sources. The authors examine data from old National Sample Surveys as well as the most recent one (2009–2010). The authors also carried out primary surveys in the four well-defined agro-climatic zones of UP, the findings of which are reported in the book.
