Tennessee Farming, Tennessee Farmers
The first book to chronicle the agricultural history of Tennessee during the antebellum period, Tennessee Farming, Tennessee Farmers explores the ways in which farmers transformed the state from an undeveloped wilderness into a cluster of mature agricultural regions producing a wide variety of commodities. As Donald Winters shows, Tennessee farmers before the Civil War created a complex agricultural system that provided goods for household consum…

The Religious Motivation for Placer Diamond Mining in Southeastern Kalimantan, Indonesia
The principal motivation of the Moslem peasants of southeastern Kalimantan, Indonesia, who engage in placer mining is the hope of finding a large, gem-quality diamond. The sale of the diamond allows the finder to make a pilgrimage (hajj) to Mecca. The returned pilgrim (haji) becomes a religious teacher who no longer has to engage in the labor of subsistence agriculture
The Origins of the American Business Corporation, 1784-1855
Population Pressure and Land Use Change
The author describes the role of population pressure in the current transition from tree crops to wet rice cultivation (sawah) in Northwestern Kalimantan, Indonesia. He contends that this change is occurring "because the senescent trees no longer produce enough commodities to exchange for rice to feed an enlarged population." The historical background is described, policies of the Indonesian government are discussed, and data are presented on the…
Agrarian Structure and Peasant Politics in Scandinavia
The Public Service Origins of the American Business Corporation
The corporate charter, so restricted in its use in England, found a constantly broadening range of applications in America from the colonial period onward. The test of importance to the general welfare, originally confined to municipal, benevolent, or at most public-utility enterprises, was being applied to manufacturing ventures by the second decade of the nineteenth century
Social Restraints on Food Production in Indonesian Subsistence Culture
In 1968 David E. Bell, vice-president of the Ford Foundation, said: “Fifteen years ago, many thought it was a relatively simple matter to raise farm output in less-developed countries. All that was needed was to make U.S. technology available to the farmers in those countries by establishing extension services or their equivalent. This notion rapidly proved to be a monumental misconception.” The monumental misconception was that peasants in less-…

The Transition to Continuous Rice Cultivation in Kalimantan
Population pressure induces Dyaks and Malay subsistence cultivators on the island of Kalimantan (Borneo) in Indonesia to make the transition from shifting to continuous wet cultivation of rice (sawah). The techniques used for continuous cultivation of rice are adapted from those used in wet shifting cultivation. KEY WORDS: DyaksIndonesiaKalimantan-BorneoPopulation pressureShifting cultivation
The Shading Cycle in Shifting Cultivation∗
Shifting cultivators allow trees to regrow on fields to shade weeds. Shade kills the perennial weeds that would compete with rice without the labor of building terraces to drown them or breaking the soil (with hoes or plows) to disrupt their root systems. In west Kalimantan, Indonesia, the normal shading cycle is from five to eight years
Laws to Encourage Manufacturing
Continuing a long tradition, the government of New York attempted to aid domestic manufacturing in various ways during the troubled period of the Embargo, the War of 1812, and the war's aftermath. Among the most important legislative actions was the state's general incorporation law for manufacturing, passed in 1811 on a temporary basis and enacted without time limit in 1821
