Journal of Agrarian Change
Edited by:
Deborah Johnston, Cristóbal Kay, Jens Lerche and Carlos Oya
The Journal of Agrarian Change is a journal of agrarian political economy. It promotes investigation of the social relations and dynamics of production, property and power in agrarian formations and their processes of change, both historical and contemporary. It encourages work within a broad interdisciplinary framework, informed by theory, and serves as a forum for serious comparative analysis and scholarly debate.
Contributions are welcomed from political economists, historians, anthropologists, sociologists, political scientists, economists, geographers, lawyers, and others committed to the rigorous study and analysis of agrarian structure and change, past and present, in different parts of the world.
As well as original research, the journal features review articles and essays and a substantial book review section. Occasional special thematic issues are published.
