About the Book

Agrarian transition, exploitative production relations, food insecurity, and poverty are among the central concerns that have marked the work of eminent economist and author, Utsa Patnaik. She has sought alternative economic models that address these concerns and that are therefore emancipatory in nature. This festschrift attempts to engage with the theoretical frameworks, historical analyses, and developmental questions that her remarkable academic contributions have raised in the hope of being useful to all whose praxis and work are anchored on the motivation to build a better and just world.
