Social Revolutions in the Modern World
The challenge to orientalist, elitist, and western historiography
The Indian stratification debate
The State and Capitalist Development in Africa
British colonial policy and famines
The focus of this paper is twofold: a) to show how the underlying tension between libertarian and paternalistic aspects of utilitarianism were expressed within the ranks of the Indian Civil Service, with specific reference to colonial famine policy; b) to consider the effects of aspects of colonial policy in relation to famine (specifically: free trade and famine relief, revenue and debt, famine victims and constructions of mortality, transportat…
Societies in Upheaval
The Kenya state, agribusiness and the peasantry
It is obvious that LHAT has gained great influence in a short space of time. President Momoh himself has said 'LIAT have come to stay, and they are going to stay'. PANAFU members who have publicised and criticised LHAT's activities in Sierra Leone have been detained by the Government. At the moment it seems lhkely that projects like FOREX and the bridge from Lungi Airport to Freetown will go ahead. However, it would be wrong to assume that LHAT a…

On The Class Location Of Contract Farmers In The Kenyan Economy
The purpose of this paper is to address some contemporary issues in the debate about rural social transformation: the so called ‘peasantry debate’. In order to clarifty these issues, we discuss material collected in Kenya on tobacco contract farming. Our intention is to integrate theoretical and substantive analyses of the current Kenyan situation. Tobacco farming is, we argue, a particularly clear instance of a form of subsumption of petty commo…

Class Formation within the Peasantry
Debate over the 'agrarian question' has continued throughout this century. In recent years, however, partly arising from a renewed interest in Marxist theory, research into rural transformation in Latin America, Africa, and India has both attacked and modified the notion of undifferentiated 'peasant societies' (Chayanov, Shanin), and approached the classical Marxist model of assumed differentiation (Marx, Engels, Kautsky) as an empirical question…

State and Class in Kenya – Notes on the Cohesion of the Ruling Class
This article attempts to situate the recent power struggle between President Daniel arap Moi and the ex-Minister for Constitutional Affairs, Charles Njonjo, in the context of class antagonisms in the Kenyan state. Over the past few years, Moi survived a number of crises partly as a result of the consistent support he has received from Njonjo. During the run-up to the general election of 26 September 1983, however, Moi was hoping that he could mob…

The development of petty commodity production in Mughal India
Argument, discussion and debate on what constitutes a mode of production abound in contemporary neo-Marxist literature and I do not intend to retrace those paths which, by now, must surely be very familiar. In an earlier paper, focusing on Mughal India, I argued that between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries, India constituted a pre-capitalist class-divided social formation in which the largest share of the surplus product was appropriated f…
