Agrarian transition, exploitative production relations, bondage in
the agriculture and informal sectors, food insecurity, and poverty
are among the central concerns that have marked the work of the
eminent economist and author Utsa Patnaik. She has sought to seek
and define alternative economic models that address these concerns
and that are therefore emancipatory in nature. This festschrift
attempts to engage with the theoretical frameworks, historical
analyses, and developmental questions that her remarkable academic
contributions have raised. The volume delves deep into issues such
as the agrarian question in contemporary India, the issue of
primitive accumulation, displacement and land rights, the crisis of
employment generation and women's work under present economic
regimes, the challenge of environmental sustainability, and
environmental constraints to development, left politics, issues of
secularism and the social challenges of communalism-all of which
are contradictions faced in the development process today. The
editors hope that the volume will be useful to all whose praxis and
work are anchored on the motivation to build a better and just
world.
