项目摘要

1. The project aims to clarify the changes in the local agrarian society in India under British rule, particularly focussing on identification of internal forces of change in agriculture.In July 1992, we presented eight papers at the SOAS South Asia Project Workshop at the Univ. of London, organized by the counterpart of our research project, the Center for South Asian Studies, SOAS, Univ. of London. Related source materials were also collected at the archives and libraries in London and India.In the second year of the project, some again visited India and Britain to further collect materials. In November, with two members invited from UK, we held a workshop in Tokyo. The outcome of the project is : P.Robb, K.Sugihara and H.Yanagisawa eds., Local Agrarian Societies in Colonial India : Japanese Perspectives, 1994.2.The main findings are as follows : (1) In south India, the unit of reproduction comprising some 10 villages was in the process of disintegration as a result of the growth of influential individuals in the 18th century. Our research reveals a growth of rich farmers in Bengal and emergence of low-caste farmers in Tamilnadu. Thus internal forces of change in agriculture existed in India as well as in Japan.(2) Our research highlighted the importance of the introduction of the labor intensive technology by small production units. The examination of Indian indigenous sugar industry and the agrarian development of south India points to this.(3) The rural structure in Malabar was much more complicated than that in Meiji Japan. An India-centered comparative framework should be built.

1。该项目旨在阐明印度在英国统治下的当地农业学会的变化，尤其是针对农业变革内部力量的识别。在1992年7月，我们在大学的SOAS South Asia项目研讨会上发表了八篇论文。伦敦，由我们研究项目的同行，南亚研究中心，SOAS，Univ组织。伦敦。还在伦敦和印度的档案和图书馆收集了相关的资料。在该项目的第二年，一些人再次访问了印度和英国，以进一步收集材料。 11月，我们在英国邀请了两名成员，我们在东京举行了一个研讨会。该项目的结果是：P.Robb，K.Sugihara和H.Yanagisawa Eds。，印度殖民地的地方农业社会：日本观点，1994.2。主要发现如下：（1）在印度南部，印度南部，由于有影响力的个体在18世纪的增长，包括大约10个村庄的繁殖正在瓦解。我们的研究揭示了孟加拉国富裕农民的成长以及泰米尔纳德邦的低种植农民的出现。因此，印度和日本都存在农业变化的内部力量。（2）我们的研究强调了小型生产单元引入劳动密集型技术的重要性。对印度土著制糖业和南印度的农业发展的研究表明。（3）马拉巴尔的乡村结构比日本明治更为复杂。应该建立一个以印度为中心的比较框架。
