This book examines the economic gains and social costs of agrarian
transformation in India. The author looks at three phases of
agrarian transformation: colonial, post- colonial, and neoliberal.
This work combines macro and micro economic data, economic and
noneconomic phenomena, and quantitative and qualitative aspects
while exploring the context of historical and contemporary changes
with special reference to Maharashtra in western India. It
discusses regional disparities in agricultural development, issues
of modernisation and social inequality, land owning among scheduled
castes and tribes, women in agriculture, pattern of labour
migration and farmer's suicides, and documents the experiences and
conditions of the rural poor and socially weaker sections to
provide a comprehensive understanding of the significant changes in
agrarian rural economy of western India. It also discusses
contemporary development policy and practices and their
consequences. Lucid and topical, this volume will be useful to
scholars and researchers of agrarian studies, rural sociology,
social history, agricultural economics, development studies,
political economy, political studies, and public policy, as well as
planning and policy experts.
