The reports issued by the Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP), spanning a period of three and a half decades since the mid-sixties, provide a useful documentation of the evolution of agricultural price policy from its inception in the shadow of a severe food crisis through the momentous changes in indian agriculture including the present phase of globalisation.

This paper presents the development characteristics of four broad groups of rural poor: scheduled castes, scheduled tribes, backward castes and religious minorities. The paper is based on the household data collected from thirty selected villages located in the four southern states. The data relate to the year 1992-93. The analysis seeks to bring out the significant differences in the development status among the broad groups of rural poor as also the gap in this respect between the poor and the rural upper strata. The data for the scheduled castes are disaggregated to see the differences across states, village types and sub-castes. An intention of the paper is to suggest that the Panchayat Raj Institutions operating at the district and lower levels could make use of relatively simple household data to identify meaningful subcategories of poor and prioritise anti-poverty programmes in a more effective manner than is possible by a procedure depending only on measurement of poverty. The paper also emphasises the need for researchers and policymakers to go beyond measurement of poverty to understand the poor and to see the link between poverty and the socio-economic environment and policy regime in which the poor operate.- Where Reforms Do Not Reach:Rural Poor in the Vicinity of Bangalore

The liberalisation-cum-globalisation strategy underlying the current phase of economic reforms in India has the objective of generating growth opportunities much more accessible to the poor than was the case during the planning regime.- Book Review

The volume under review is the ninth title in the series Land Reforms in India sponsored by Lalbahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration (LBSNAA), Mussoorie. The volume is published a decade after the first volume in the series-on Bihar-was published in 1993! The seminars, on which the volume is based, were held in 1991 and 1994. Interestingly, the seven papers selected from those presented in the seminars account for only a third of the volume. The rest of the papers are, apparently, contributed by scholars who had not participated in the seminars, but were invited later by the editor to write on selected themes relating to land issues in Tamil Nadu. While the editor needs to be commended for this initiative, the volume seems to reflect the diminishing interest in land reforms, except the few passionately committed to the ideology and development strategy underlying land reforms.
