Civil Society in Sri Lanka
Introduction The Many Faces of Security in Sri Lanka Good Governance and the New Aid Regime Partnership in Development and NGOs: A Critique of Donor Conceptions Sovereignty and Humanitarian Relief Organizations Conclusion Index
The Transformation of Sri Lankan Society, 1948-1999
With independence in 1948, successive Sri Lankan governments embarked on a far-reaching extension of state control into many sectors of society. The distinction between state and society was being progressively obliterated. By the decade, 1970-80, the budgetary strain was proving too much and the legitimacy of the expanded government role was being challenged. The relaxation of the control of the economy after 1977, and the multiplication of civi…

The Transcendence of Locality and the Persistence of Community in Sri Lanka, 1980-1995
In 1995, a resurvey of a sample of households in eight communities located in Galle and Nuwara Eliya districts fifteen years after the original survey provides strong evidence that communities are taking on new functions. The intersection of household changes in size, age distribution, education level and income earning with the continuing and rapid integration of communities into the market economy, the centralized state and the homogenizing cul…
The Embourgeoisement of the Kerala Farmer
A new class is emerging in rural Kerala. Though it was christened a bourgeoisie by E. M. S. Namboodiripad, the chief minister of Kerala state during the two phases of land reform (1957-59 and 1967-69), it is not an extension of the modern industrial bourgeoisie into a rural society. Rather it is a distinctly new social formation emerging from among the farmers. The opportunities for farmers to adopt bourgeois aspirations have been created by the …
Status and Sacredness
Status and Sacredness provides a new theory of status and sacral relationships and a provocative reinterpretation of the Indian caste system and Hinduism. Milner shows how in India and many other social contexts status is a key resource, and that sacredness can be usefully understood as a special form of status. By analysing the nature of this Milner is able to provide powerful explanations of the key features of the social structure, culture, an…

Rural household livelihood strategies in a Sri Lankan village
This paper examines the household income‐generating strategies in a Kandyan village. Pushed by population growth, heads of households are forced to enter into increasingly complex relations with the outside world. Those with the initial advantage of larger landholdings are able to educate their children, find more secure sources of outside income and invest in agriculture productivity. The tenants and landless are forced to sell their labour, oft…

The Persistent Rural Crisis in Asia

This concern took a number of forms, notably the support given to the Chinese land utilization study directed by Buck and to the study of land and labour in China by Tawney, for whom W.L. Holland acted as a research assistant and secretary. The Council of the Insti…
