Recenzii
‘Historically informed, theoretically nuanced and pluralist, empirically long, wide and deep, sensitive to region, gender, caste, ethnic and class inequalities, this is a definitive multi-disciplinary contribution to the questions of agrarian economic transformation.’
Barbara Harriss-White, Emeritus Professor of Development Studies, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK
‘This book explores the history of agriculture and its changing trajectories over the past century and more. The strongest point of the book is its empirical depth and the author's ability to situate his findings in a historical and comparative context with a wide range of conceptual tools.’
Surinder S. Jodhka, Professor of Sociology, Centre for the Study of Social Systems, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, India
‘The book is extremely timely, showing how and why current transformations have numerous undesirable social consequences. . . The interdisciplinary nature and the rigour of the research make this book an important reading in agrarian studies.’
Joan P. Mencher, Emerita Professor of City University Graduate, Centre City University of New York, New York, USA
