Comprising original essays by scholars. activists and administrators, it provides an in-depth understanding of the history. progress and current status of the reforms in that State. Using both field-level primary data and secondary sources such as land records and judicial proceedings, the contributors focus on five important issues from a legal, administrative and people's perspective. These are the impact of peasant struggles and agrarian movements in the State: the enactment of legislation and the implementation of land ceiling laws: the distribution of surplus land; tenancy reforms; and the status of landless labourers. Among the other themes covered are the role of state agencies in both framing policies and then implementing them: the response of the judicial machinery: successful administrative efforts in the tribal areas of Andhra Pradesh: the status of women agricultural labourers: and the role played by activists and NGOS.
