The agrarian question in the 21st century - Fellows' seminar by Haroon Akram-Lodhi

The ‘agrarian question’ which arose in the 1890s, is concerned with understanding the processes by which capitalism does or does not enter small-scale peasant agriculture and transforms it into more commercially oriented entrepreneurial modes of farming, and the impact of such processes on the livelihoods of small-scale peasant farmers and the ecologies that shape the landscapes in which they work, explained Haroon Akram-Lodhi of the Department of Global Justice and Development, Trent University, Canada.
