The issues have been incorporated into two volumes. In Volume I, studies related to agrarian crisis and farmers' suicide have been included, while Volume II incorporates the studies related to the livelihood security of the agrarian and rural labour. As the ongoing farmers' suicides and economic destruction of farmers and rural labourers continues, with intermittent media reports and apathy from ruling quarters, the contributors generally shunned the explanations offered by media and the political parties. They have gone deeper into the causes and tried to analyse the problems with economists' mind. The papers are empirical and exploratory in nature written by both promising young scholars and experienced researchers. It is hoped that the book will be useful to researchers, academicians and policy makers and administrators alike who have an interests in the topics and who are somehow related and concerned with the issues.
