Debt and Death in Rural India is a study of farmer suicides in
rural Punjab from the mid-1980s up to 2008. Based on comprehensive
original research work, it examines various factors ranging from
central to state policies and critically analyses political,
economic and social trends that led to the dismal condition of the
farmers between 1988 and 2008. This study presents a unique
trajectory on the issue of farmer suicides and contextualises the
problem within a historical and geographical framework. It includes
interviews of family members of a number of farmers who committed
suicide in the subdivision of Sangrur district of Punjab, India,
which constitutes the area of the study. This outstanding work
analyses the interplay of economic and political forces and
recommends concrete policy measures to enable Punjab to break out
of the vicious farmer-suicide cycle.
