Summary: Of the dozen essays that make up this volume, three are by recognized Indian economists: K. N. Raj's piece introduces the subject at a theoretical level; Krishna Bharadwaj's conclud ing essay expounds what has been learnt on the process of commercialization; and Amit Bhaduri offers a challenging interpretation of the differ ences between agricultural commercialization in the eastern and western parts of UP. Chiranjib Sen's essay tries to confute Bhaduri's hypothesis and offers alternative reasons for the differentiation between east and west UP. The essays by Neeladri Bhattacharya and Mridula Mukherjee study agrarian change and conditions of labour in Punjab. M. Atchi Reddy, K. Nagaraj and Nata Duvvury study crops, changes and markets in various regions of South India. Sumit Guha's contribution discusses the economy of the Deccan, Pradipta Chaudhuri analyses labour migration in Orissa, while the essay by Sakti Padhi is mainly theoretical and examines the categories within which the Indian commercialization process has hitherto been studied. This wide-ranging survey of Indian agricultu ral commercialization will be of interest to students of history, economics, Marxism and the Indian peasantry.
