The Agrarian Crisis in India Before Independence: Toward Its Solution Mr Rajani Palme Dutt

Written in 1934, Agrarian Crisis in India by Rajani Palme Dutt is a scholarly and incisive analysis of the agricultural economy and the plight of Indian farmers during the great depression. This new edition of Dutt's lucid presentation of the causes of the ongoing decline in agricultural output and potential in India as a result of British policies of free trade and financial manipulation can be digested readily by readers in the early 21st century who, the world over, are familiar with - because they are subject to - the same methods.
