{"product_id":"peasantry-and-surplus-von-mahmood-ansari","title":"Peasantry and Surplus","description":"\u003cp\u003eA semi-feudal agrarian economy at a mofussil level  invariably faces recurring problems of insufficient  production on farms and food deficits in households.  Such problems have but rather deepened further since  1991 ¿ the year of neoliberal economic reforms in  India. Contemporary literature is but geared to  abstracting from the facts that the economic  differentiation among producers over time lead to  divergences in production performances, ensuing as  it is from the resource inequity and asymmetry in  asset distribution and manifested in observed  relations of labour exploitation, and is rather  inherited from the pre-reforms period only.  This monograph analyzes cross-section data from  Purnia ¿ a north Bihar district of India ¿ to  establish the inherited nature of the divergences in  the costs, production, surplus and poverty across  different classes of peasantry. It is hoped that the  analysis put forward  on the pattern of generation  of  disposable surplus and its relation with poverty  in the benchmark year of reforms would be of  interest and useful to the post graduate  students,  researchers, academics and policy makers  in south  Asia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783843365611\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Study from Rural Bihar, India\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783843365611","offer_id":39469952827485,"sku":"9783843365611","price":68.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/365a3168-a70a-4576-8d5b-78b055b481e2.jpg?v=1757911310","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/peasantry-and-surplus-von-mahmood-ansari","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
