It is very much up to the moment in its excellent contextualisation of contemporary change; its investigation of rural classes of labour and what shapes their prospects, is innovative, theoretically sophisticated and empirically precise.' Henry Bernstein, Emeritus Professor of Development Studies, SOAS, University of London 'This outstanding book, based on more than a decade of richly textured research illuminates the character of agrarian social relations in contemporary India and is a major contribution to understanding of the social implications of India's pursuit of neoliberalism.'
