Marketing under Famine Conditions in Rural Nepal
Recently social scientists have demonstrated an increasing interest in famines and their sociocultural effects. However, as William Torry notes, empirical research on famines at the local community level particularly in terms of quantitative household surveys, longitudinal studies, or the junctures of relationships linking the local community with regional or national levels of organization are extremely scarce (1984: 229, 243, 245-7; 1986:13
Peasant-worker Households and Community-based Organizations in Rural Japan
Despite a growing interest by anthropologists in the process whereby peasants have been incorporated into a modern industrialized economy as 'post-peasants', 'peasant-workers', or 'part-time farmers', comparatively little research has focused upon the community level of social integration as an important facet of this process (see Barlett 1980: 553, 560-1). For the most part, this lack of concern can probably be attributed to the fact that much o…
Part-Time Farming: A Japanese Example
Although most Japanese agricultural households (87 percent) are "worker-peasant" or "part-time" farming enterprises, they have rapidly modernized their farming operations during the past twenty years. It is suggested that two factors, in particular, have reinforced the position of the Japanese part-time farming household: first, given the alternatives, part-time farming is viewed as constituting the most secure form of income over a person's life…
Peasant Society and Famine: A Nepalese Example
Exploitation' in Peasant Societies: A Nepalese Example
The concept of exploitation as applied to the relationships between peasants and their ruling élite has frequently been utilized by anthropologists to distinguish peasants from other rural cultivators. This essay, based on a single peasant community of East Nepal, illustrates that exploitation occurs at many levels and that a peasantry's relationships with the larger society may not, in fact, be as unequal as the current literature asserts. It is…
The Jajmani System: A Nepalese Example
Although considerable research has been devoted to the customary system of labor relations found in South Asia, very little has been written about precisely how the annual jajmani payments are determined. This essay, based on data from East Nepal, indicates that customary labor payments, although often based on averages and prorated over a person's lifetime, are still proportional to the services provided. It is suggested that the system of relat…
