In this book, Leon Zamosc provides an account of the history of
ANUC and its struggle on three main fronts: for land, for the
defence of the colonists, and for the protection of smallholders.
The main focus of the book is on the land struggles. Professor
Zamosc adopts a structural perspective, examining the agrarian
contradictions that propelled the peasant struggles, the changing
relationship between the peasant movement and the state, and the
political and ideological content of the peasant challenge. He
explores these issues in the light of the shifting patterns of
class alignments and antagonisms that marked the rise and decline
of peasant radicalism during the 1970s, and offers some suggestions
about the significance of ANUC's struggles for the understanding of
peasant movements in general.
