About This Item
New. <p><em>Rethinking African Agriculture</em> argues that rural communities in Africa are still shaped by non-agrarian factors both in livelihood strategy and social formation.</p><p>This volume renews and deepens the research on the African peasantry by offering a fresh perspective drawn from the hitherto largely unknown Japanese research on the subject. The ethnographic fieldwork focuses not only on the micro environment of the producers but also the broader historical context in which they live and work. The contributors argue that, in comparison with other regions of the world, Africa has never passed through an agrarian revolution that would effectively change the mode of production from within. Modernization efforts from the outside have fallen far short of the ambition to transform agriculture in Africa. Rural Africa is still largely a natural society characterized by "non-agrarian" features as evident in peopleâs livelihood, social organization, and farming systems. </p><p>This book will be of interest to social scientists and anthropologists focusing on African development, agriculture and agrarian societies,</p>
