This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preamble Agricultural progress is normally regarded as a prerequisite of economic development. It is true that economic development in the modern times has come to be associated with industrialisation; nevertheless, it is generally accepted that industrialisation can follow only on the sound wheels of agriculture. As a matter of fact, if one goes by the available evidence, with the exception of Great Britain, industrial development in all presently developed countries proceeded on the basis of agricultural self-sufficiency and increase in agricultural productivity, made possible through State intervention in numerous ways such as subsidized farm inputs, free expertise and extension services, price guarantees and the provision of overheads in terms of credit, marketing and numerous social and civil amenities. In a developing economy, agriculture has to be given priority in order to accelerate the rate of economic progress. The agricultural labourers of several developing countries have peculiar characteristics that are common to most of the landless agricultural labourer of developing countries especially those with high population size. The plight of agricultural labourers is becoming increasingly deplorable in most developing countries. However in some countries the state intervened to protect the interest of agricultural labourers by adopting both restrictive and promotional measures while other governments have generally been lukewarm to their problems.

Download or read book Workers from the North written by Scott Whiteford and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-11-11 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International migration between countries in Latin America became increasingly important during the twentieth century, but for a long time it was the subject of only limited research. Scott Whiteford sets the Argentina-Bolivia experience in historical perspective by examining the macrolevel factors that influenced social change in both countries and brought streams of migration into Argentina. Seasonal labor, the expansion of capitalist agriculture, international migration, and urbanization are central topics in this in-depth study of Bolivian migrants in Northwest Argentina. Whiteford’s vivid portrayal of the lives and working conditions of the migrants is based on two years of research during which he lived with the workers on a sugar plantation and, after the harvest, accompanied them to other farms and to the city of Salta in their search for more work. He traces the development of plantation agriculture in Northwest Argentina and the processes by which the plantation gained access to cheap labor and maintained control over it. As Bolivians migrated to Argentina in ever greater numbers, many recruited for the harvest remained. Whiteford’s analysis of the diverse strategies employed by workers and their families to support themselves during the post-harvest season is a major contribution to migration literature. The four distinct but related patterns of migration that he describes created a labor reserve that transcends rural/urban designations, one that is utilized by employers in both the countryside and the city.
