| 摘要 | Do differences in power structures play an important causal role in advancing or retarding agricultural productivity? In discussing the relationship between power and productivity, the nine contributors to this volume anthropologists, economists, political scientists, historians- raise questions about the widely accepted generalization that structures of local power are a major constraint on technically progressive agriculture. By contrast, they argue that there is no necessary relationship between asymmetrical power structures and high or low productivity. Rather, the relationship between power and productivity varies with historical time and region and is determined in part by legal arrangements and their implementation, market opportunities, and how surpluses are allocated. This volume is the first product of a unique attempt by the Social Science Research Council (New York) with the support of the Indian Council of Social Science Research (New Delhi) to ask cross-national and multidisciplinary working groups to engage in social science conceptualization and explanation by deploying several national and disciplinary lenses. In their transdisciplinary and transnational analyses and findings, the contributors display an uncommon capacity to bridge analytical differences and to integrate several theoretical perspectives. |
