Wage Labour and Unfreedom in Agriculture - Ramachandran, V. K. (Visiting Fellow at the Center for Population Studies, Visiting Fellow at the Center for Population Studies, Harvard University)

Focusing on an area in the vanguard of agricultural development in Southern India, this book asks how so much growth and technical change can take place in agriculture and yet leave the position of the labourers relatively unchanged. The author examines the decline of wages, the property-less status of labourers, and consumption and indebtedness.
