	An Agrarian History of South Asia. Chapter One
		Agrarian folk appear as a negative mirror image of all that is urban, industrial, and modern; not as makers of history, but rather as a inhabitants of history, endowed with mentalities and memories which can be recovered, but not with creative powers to transform their world.
		Agrarian history appeared first as a chronicle of state policy, whose impact was measured in the endless dance of numbers on agrarian taxation, rent, debt, cropping, output, living standards, technology, demography, land holding, contracts, marketing, and other money matters.
		The flood, the famine, the drought, the plague, and all the big events in agrarian life are always connected culturally and experientially to the nature of the harvest and to human entitlements to the fruit of the land.

	Agrarian Dreams: CHAPTER ONE
		Cutting across all four of the movements mentioned, contemporary agrarian populism shares many of the same elements of this broadly construed "industrialization" critique, in, for example, its concern with corporate power, the role of big science in agro-industrialization, and the implicit links between the social organization of farming and ecological outcomes.
		After the so-called closing of the frontier, agrarianism was revitalized during the populist moment of the 1890s, when western farmers fought the monopoly power of the railroads and middlemen.
		Agrarianism saw another resurgence after the dust bowl tragedy of the 1930s, when the dust storms were attributed to agricultural consolidation and mechanization, which had pushed poor tenant farmers west to become "sodbusters" (Worster 1979).

	Russian Revolution - MSN Encarta
		Local government (zemstvo) was seen as the embryo of parliamentary government, and liberalization of the legal profession stimulated the idea of legislation, both on a national scale.
		The end of serfdom created a desire and indeed a need for farther-reaching agrarian reform, and Alexander's educational reforms, which had opened the doors of high schools and universities to the children of the non-noble classes, generated a large, vociferous, and sometimes violent community of radical and revolutionary youth.
		When in Petrograd (now St Petersburg) in March 1917 a demonstration for International Women's Day turned into a riot against bread shortage and mutinous troops joined in, the government lost control and power slipped into the hands of a provisional government made up of leading figures from the State Duma.

		Reconstructing past agrarian environments is not a major activity among historians of South Asia.
		Current approaches to early modernity in South Asia have emerged from the connected histories of overseas trade, inland economies, agrarian societies, and regional polities, as studies of the eighteenth century have forced a reconsideration of transitions between Mughal and British periods.

		The agrarian aspect of the movement was now uppermost, but the vote of 17,000 polled in Illinois, though the largest of the group, was less than a quarter of the votes cast by the state Independent Reform party in 1874 when railroad regulation had been the dominant issue.

		It was no wonder that a leading historian could complain in 1947 of "the confusions in which most historical students have been tossing."2 The morale of the guild and the self-esteem and confidence of its members were in disarray, and some despaired of the beleaguered and defenseless plight of the craft.
		A profession that sets itself up as custodian of the past among a people with such peculiar attitudes toward the past, a people that has characteristically sought identity in the future would seem to have little ground for complacency.
		A fatal betrayal of the craft would be to permit the profession of history to become inextricably entangled with the future of the past, the purposeful past of the rationalizers, the justifiers, and the propagandists.

		The German medical profession was quite different: the public university system, government-sponsored medical associations, and state insurance schemes all created far closer ties between the profession and the state.
		The example of the Guatemalan sugar plantations points to what is increasingly identified as a neglected dimension in the agrarian restructuring literature, that is, the role of class and local class struggles in shaping trajectories of agrarian change.
		In the case of Guatemala, the critical difference is the existence of a enduring national agrarian elite able to exercise its power at multiple levels, from influencing state policies to deepening its command over workers and the labor process.

	UNRISD: Publications \| Agrarian Change, Gender and Land Rights: A Brazilian Case Study
		According to the first census of the agrarian reform organized by INCRA in 1996, only 12.62 per cent of the beneficiaries were women.
		The empowerment of women within agrarian reform, however, is occurring in an unpremeditated way and parallel to demands raised by the leadership of rural movements.
		The influence of the active role played by women in the encampments of occupied land, as research has shown, may be diluted in the return to traditional gender relations as settlements are established, or may even generate frustrations that cannot be vented.

		A member of the tribe may give the church two-thirds of what he gains by a liberal profession, it is different, however, if the profession be that of the tribe itself.
		At the period of the Brehon Laws, the whole territory of the tribe is still regarded in theory as belonging to the whole community; but, as a matter of fact, a very considerable portion of the soil has been permanently appropriated by certain families.
		A great part of the soil was subject to methods of tenure and agrarian customs, strongly impregnated with traditions of the old joint ownership.

		If empowerment would allow the teacher to teach in the truest sense of academic freedom the strengths of his regional culture, then perhaps the best of our young people would desire to be teachers.

		Historiography as a profession and subject matter came into being because it was believed that history itself could become a profession and subject matter.

		Sure enough, since the beginning of the Agrarian era, sometime in antiquity, man appar-ently learned enough by foraging, and by tilling the soil, to produce enough of a modicum of Food to preserve him until at least the next day.
		The Economic profession, the role of which is purportedly to resolve Economic problems, problems that always had been sourced in Food Scarcity, had become firmly established during the Agrarian era, had been accorded a high prestige, with professional economists sought after as advisors to Presidents and Kings.
		Taxation — During the Agrarian era, wherein virtually everyone was required to procure his own food, or grow it, it made some sense for some of that Food to be “taxed” in order for the personnel who governed, and who had not the time to grow their own, to be able also to eat.
