Agrarian crisis in Kerala: a macro perspective. 4. Agrarian crisis: an empirical analysis on causes. 5. Agrarian crisis: the extent, consequences and strategies adopted. 6. Summary and recommendations. Bibliography. There is a fairly wide recognition that Indian agriculture has been passing through serious crisis over a decade. Two different faces of crisis are always differentiated, 'agrarian crisis' and 'agricultural crisis'. 'Agrarian Crisis' is structural and institutional in nature, as could be seen in growing marginalization and failure of support system due to the unfinished agenda of shifting institutional emphasis from state to the market. 'Agricultural Crisis' may be seen as referring to performance of agricultural sector in terms of changes in growth of productivity and production and input and technology related factors. The most striking feature of Indian agriculture over the last decade is the reinforcing and interacting of agricultural and agrarian crisis culminating in ever increasing incidence of farmers suicides. Any policy adopted in reviewing this sector and correspondingly providing livelihood security to the farmers requires an indepth understanding of different dimensions including causes, extent and consequences of the crisis. Only with a comprehension of this, intervention strategies can be adopted so as to prevent such situations in the future and also rebuild household livelihood on a sustainable basis. Based on this background, the book intends to unravel the factors and processes underlying the agrarian crisis on the one hand and the consequences of it on the other. The study is particularly focused on the state of Kerala, since Kerala's agriculture has some unique features including highly fragmented and small size of holdings, homestead farming with mixed crops, larger area under commercial crops, export orientation crops, high credit and hired labour intensive cultivation and higher indebtedness of farmers which exacerbated the crisis resulting in a suicide of around 2000 farmers and snatching the livelihood security of a vast majority.

Paperback. Condición: New. Language: English. ABOUT THE BOOK:-Decentralised administrative structure in India generally has a three-tier classification, with Gram Panchayaths at the grassroot level, Block Panchayaths at the intermediate level and District Panchayaths at the top level, with Kerala following the same pattern. However, considering the limited geographic terrain of the state and the kind of administrative needs of the society, several studies points out the intermediate tier to be redundant in functioning. However, a generalized judgement cannot be formed on its redundancy. Nedumangad Block Panchayath, in Thiruvananthapuram district of Kerala, stands out as a case with replicable merits, by effectively performing the specified general and sectoral functions assigned through an optimal mix of good governance, resource management and people's participation. Reiterating the facts, Nedumangad Block Panchayath is the proud recipient of Deen Dayal Upadhyay Panchayath Shaktheekaran Puraskar consecutively for 2017-18, 2018-19 and 2019-20. The book 'Block Panchayath as Change Agents in India's Decentralisation : The Kerala Experience' is an analytical exposition of how Block Panchayaths can become change agents, illustrated through the case of Nedumanagad Block, wherein the multiple facets behind the successful functioning of the particular Block is identified and analysed. A framework integrating elements of good governance, environmental governance and sustainability is used in the study. ABOUT THE AUTHOR:-Dr. Manju S.

Hardcover. Condición: New. Language: English. About the Book:- The Indian state of Kerala has received considerable amount of attraction internationally owing to the remarkable achievements she has made in social sectors, particularly health sector with relatively lesser number of economic resources. Kerala's figures on life expectancy, male and female literacy, child mortality, crude death rate etc. are close to those of developed countries and Kerala's achievements in health, in spite of its economic backwardness has prompted many analysts to talk about a unique' Kerala Model of Health' providing 'good health at low cost' worth emulating by other developing parts of the world. However, over the last few years concerns were raised about the sustainability of Kerala model of health exemplified by the simultaneous presence of the diseases of poverty (infectious diseases) and diseases of affluence (life style diseases), decay in Public Health System, uncontrolled growth of private sector resulting in escalation of health care cost. Taking cue of these issues, the Government of Kerala has attempted to revamp the health sector through a plethora of intervention programmes to make healthcare in Kerala accessible, affordable and available to all sections of the population. The book on 'Revisiting the Kerala Model of Health' enquires upon the multiple facets of the Model, the challenges in terms of increasing morbidity and escalating expenditure, health status of the marginalized, interventions in terms of new initiatives at the governance and implementation levels, evaluation of attempts at providing food and nutrition security etc. The book will be of particular use to academicians, health workers and policy makers.

Bryophytes the amphibians of the plant kingdom occupy almost all kinds of habitats in almost all parts of the globe. These are a group of plants with distinct identity known to the mankind from time immemorial and consist of three lineages viz. Liverworts Hornworts and Mosses. Even though neglected for the lack of direct economic importance or un assuming nature they play important role in ecosystem dynamics nutrient cycling soil binding providing microhabitats for other plant and animals fills gaps in the habitats promote plant succession etc. They also serve as ideal study objects giving insights into the plant evolution monitoring the ecosystem health and pollution levels. However the studies on this group are comparatively lesser in India and most of them are confined to the Himalayas. Even tough the Southern India despite with its blessed climatic and geographical features of the Western Ghats is equally rich as the Himalayas still remains bryologically under explored. This book is the result of extensive explorations on the bryophytes of Wayanad the mountainous district in the Western Ghats of Kerala notable for its unique geographical location with varied topography and associated habitat diversity supporting unique assemblage of biodiversity. Except for the coast and backwaters almost all habitat types of South India from low altitude to the high altitude grasslands and shola forests occur in Wayanad which forms the major part of the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve. This book contains illustrative accounts of 171 species and two varieties of bryophytes belonging to 105 genera and 47 families including two new species viz. Trichostomum Wayanadensis and Amphidium gangulii. Seven species and one variety are new distribution records to India 31 species and one variety are new records to Peninsular India and 43 are new records to Kerala. Easy to follow keys and descriptions of family genus and species are provided supported with more than 160 figures and 200 photographs. Each species is treated in detail with the updated scientific name important synonyms relevant to the Indian context and taxonomic description. Its macro and microhabitat details Indian as well as global distribution and details of the voucher specimens are also given. Most of the bryophytes described in this book enjoys a wider distribution in South India makes this book usable as an identification manual in almost all parts of the Western Ghats. This book fulfils the long felt need for a comprehensive taxonomic identification manual on the bryophytes of South India. 284 pp.…
