Offers a historically grounded and multi-scalar analysis of agrarian change in Nepal's eastern Tarai, exploring the convergence between older economic formations grounded in landlord-tenant relations with contemporary capitalism.
This book offers a historically grounded and multi-scalar analysis of agrarian change in Nepal''s far-eastern Tarai. It shows how this region has since the 1700s evolved from a forested frontier home to relatively autonomous Adivasi (indigenous) cultivators, to a feudal economy grounded in landlord-tenant relations, which has persisted alongside a rapidly expanding industrial and commercial sector. The book explores the changing land ownership patterns and distribution of surplus, the flow of labour between agriculture and industry, and more complex interactions with global capitalism. The book thus offers unique insights into both the reproduction and transformations of class, ethnic and labour relations in Nepal during a period of rapid political transformation.
