Rural Poverty and the Landed Elite: South Asian Experience Revisited

Author
Hirashima, S.
Abstract
This brief paper tries to highlight two important missing aspects for understanding poverty issues in developing countries. They are the economic analysis of the rural non-farm households, and the behavior of land markets. Taking South Asia as a case, this paper claims that without proper understanding of these aspects, it is difficult to formulate an effective solution to the poverty issue.
