内容説明

This analysis of rural poverty in India combines both macro and micro approaches. The main focus of this book is on the impact of economic growth on the rural poor, but the author works within the broader framework of socio-political and techno-economic factors. Three categories of regions have been selected to represent some of the most typical situations found in India: advanced areas, poor but potentially rich areas and areas that face severe physical constraints. The areas concerned have been repeatedly surveyed over a period of years, enabling the author to provide an informative, interesting and authentic account of what is happening over time at grass roots level.
