Book excerpt: Preamble Agricultural progress is normally regarded as a prerequisite of economic development. It is true that economic development in the modern times has come to be associated with industrialisation; nevertheless, it is generally accepted that industrialisation can follow only on the sound wheels of agriculture. As a matter of fact, if one goes by the available evidence, with the exception of Great Britain, industrial development in all presently developed countries proceeded on the basis of agricultural self-sufficiency and increase in agricultural productivity, made possible through State intervention in numerous ways such as subsidized farm inputs, free expertise and extension services, price guarantees and the provision of overheads in terms of credit, marketing and numerous social and civil amenities. In a developing economy, agriculture has to be given priority in order to accelerate the rate of economic progress. The agricultural labourers of several developing countries have peculiar characteristics that are common to most of the landless agricultural labourer of developing countries especially those with high population size. The plight of agricultural labourers is becoming increasingly deplorable in most developing countries. However in some countries the state intervened to protect the interest of agricultural labourers by adopting both restrictive and promotional measures while other governments have generally been lukewarm to their problems.
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 Challenging Chains to Change by : Anna Laven
Download or read book Challenging Chains to Change written by Anna Laven and published by Kit Pub. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Very often, efforts to improve value chains miss out half of the population - the female half. It is men who sell the products and who keep the money from those sales. The women, who do much of the work but are not recognized for it, often have to work even harder to meet ever-increasing quality requirements. But they see few of the benefits. How to change this? This book explains how development organizations and private entrepreneurs have found ways to improve the position of women in value chains - especially small scale women farmers and primary processors. It outlines five broad strategies for doing this: (1) working with women on typical "women's products" such as shea, poultry and dairy; (2) opening up opportunities for women to work on what are traditionally "men's commodities" or in men's domains; (3) supporting women and men in organizing for change by building capacity, organization, sensitization and access to finance; (4) using standards and certification to promote gender equity, and (5) promoting gender-responsible business. The book draws on dozens of cases from all over the world, covering a wide range of crops and livestock products. These include traditional subsistence products (such as rice), small-scale cash items (honey, vegetables) as well as export commodities (artichokes, coffee) and biofuels (jatropha). The book includes a range of tools and methodologies for analyzing and developing value chains with gender in mind. By bringing together the two fields of gender and value chains, this book offers a set of compelling arguments for addressing gender in value chain development.

Book Synopsis Ground Down by Growth by : Alpa Shah
Download or read book Ground Down by Growth written by Alpa Shah and published by Anthropology, Culture and Society. This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why has India's astonishing economic growth not reached the people at the bottom of its social and economic hierarchy? Traveling the length and breadth of the subcontinent, this book shows how India's "untouchables" and "tribals" fit into the global economy. India's Dalit and Adivasi communities make up a staggering one in twenty-five people across the globe and yet they remain among the most oppressed. Conceived in dialogue with economists, Ground Down by Growth reveals the lived impact of global capitalism on the people of these communities. Through anthropological studies of how the oppressions of caste, tribe, region, and gender impact the working poor and migrant labor in India, this startling new anthology illuminates the relationship between global capital and social inequality in the Indian context. Collectively, the chapters of this volume expose how capitalism entrenches social difference, transforming traditional forms of identity-based discrimination into new mechanisms of exploitation and oppression.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It?s no secret that certain social groups have predominated India?s business and trading history, with business traditionally being the preserve of particular `Bania? communities. However, the past four or so decades have seen a widening of the social base of Indian capital, such that the social profile of Indian business has expanded beyond recognition, and entrepreneurship and commerce in India are no longer the exclusive bastion of the old mercantile castes. In this meticulously researched book ? acclaimed for being the first social history to document and understand India?s new entrepreneurial groups ? Harish Damodaran looks to answer who the new `wealth creators? are, as he traces the transitional entry of India?s middle and lower peasant castes into the business world. Combining analytical rigour with journalistic flair, India?s New Capitalists is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the culture and evolution of business in contemporary South Asia.

Download or read book Footloose Labour written by Jan Breman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-09-13 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a penetrating anthropological study of the working poor in India, Jan Breman examines the lives of those who, pushed out of the agrarian labour market, depend on casual work. Beginning his local-level research in two villages in south Gujarat, the author discusses the mobilisation of casual labour, which is hired and fired according to the need of the moment, and transferred for the duration of the job to destinations far away from the home area. His case-study reveals that the circulation of labour is indicative of an employment pattern which dominates both the rural and urban economy of large parts of South Asia. Elaborating on the social profile of the work migrants, the author argues that their identity is shaped by both class and caste relations and, despite action by state agencies, nothing of significance has been achieved to improve their quality of life.
