Soft cover. Zustand: New. The complex socio-political and economic structure of life on the Indian subcontinent has been confused by centuries of accretion in overlapping terminology. It has been further distorted by persistent Western attempts to reduce it to Western frames of reference. Above all, the Western concept of land 'ownership' as a permanent and legally recorded holding of specified pieces of 'real estate' as property has been quite alien to India. In Indian, ability to 'hold', 'possess' or 'rule' a piece of land or territory, including its inhabitants, or at least a 'share' of its produce, was traditionally determined by one's family or caste status, and by holding actual political power, without which no one could expect to retain possession for long. Security in the 'holding' or tenure of land in India, therefore, has been more immediately political than in the West and has depended largely upon status and power. In this volume, whose first edition won wide scholarly acclaim in India, nine distinguished Indian historians re-examine what is perhaps the central problem throughout India's history. In a general introduction, Dr. Frykenberg points out some of the broader aspects of the relations between land control and social structure. This is followed by a theoretical examination of the meaning of the concept of 'land' in an Indian milieu. Also included are essays on more specific themes: the Zamindars under the Mughals; the disruption of land-holding under the British; the fate of the 'dispossessed'; the transformation of local rajas into landlords in Oudh; the permanent settlement in operation in a Bengal district; the integration of agrarian life in South India; The Ryotwari system in the Madras presidency and the endurance and tenacity of village influences within South India from regime to regime. Specially new in this edition is an essay about persistent historical tendencies leading to structural disintegration entitled 'traditional processes of power in South India'.

Soft cover. Zustand: New. 2nd Edition. Nowhere on earth is the relationship between man and land more complicated and seemingly as intractable as in South Asia. India alone, with some 1.37 billion people, most of whom work the land for a living, has known famine and scarcity on a scale unknown elsewhere. This has mocked humanity, threatened world peace and urged need to investigate causes and remedies. Chapters in this volume look at issues of land, tenure, and peasant from a variety of different disciplineshistory, anthropology, economics, geography, political science, sociology. They furnish fresh insights on discrete localities and problems. Each is by a specialist who deals with intricate ways in which land and lord and labour have been combined and changed. Poverty and scarcity are not the same. Abolishing poverty by economic development alone, without coming to grips with conflicts, can beg the question and end in futility. Contributors emphasize the fallacy of thinking that, with just a little more money, fertilizer or know-how (often coming from an alien environment), problems of land tenure and distribution can be resolved. Socio-economic engineering, however well intentioned, is prone to end in frustration and failure, quite oblivious of how or why.
