Agrarian Environments

""Agrarian Environments" is a volume of historically and empirically informed essays that represents a new generation of scholarship that promises to reshape the fields of agrarian and environmental studies. By confronting some of the received wisdoms that have separated the study of agriculture from that of the environment, this book opens up a whole range of new and refreshing questions that will be of relevance to scholars and policymakers in all parts of the world."--Akhil Gupta, author of "Postcolonial Developments: Agriculture in the Making of Modern India"
