Description: Capital, Interrupted : Agrarian Development and the Politics of Work in India, Paperback by Gidwani, Vinay, ISBN 0816649596, ISBN-13 9780816649594, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Capitalism is not a stable system but a series of interlocking practices hoping to remain reasonably flexible as well as reasonably secure, according to Gidwani (geography and global studies, U. of Minnesota). Given this concept, Gidwani is free to investigate a wide range of issues, including the ways in which the study of political economy might be freed from Eurocentrism, the adequacy of postcolonial critiques of Marx and capitalism, and the possibility that capitalism may be a geographically uneven social formation that, if the situation is right, can result in the impairment of profit and the accumulation of wealth. Using the Patel caste of western India as a case study, Gidwani traces their unique success and the impending implications to the global economy, academe and society.
