Review of Agrarian Studies, 2025, vol. 15, issue 2

Abstract: This paper has two broad objectives. First, it provides a comprehensive list of all village studies undertaken in eastern and western Uttar Pradesh to date, and draws on those undertaken between 2000 and 2023 to describe features of production conditions, labour relations, and income and employment diversification in the early 21st century. Secondly, it describes agrarian conditions in two villages surveyed by the Project on Agrarian Relations in India (PARI), in 2006, one each in eastern and western Uttar Pradesh, and uses this to highlight aspects of the development of capitalism in agriculture in the two regions.
