Everyday Forms Res Asia

First published in 1987. This is volume 9 of the libray of peasant studies series. The contributors focus on a vast and relatively unexplored middle-ground of peasant politics between passivity and open, collective defiance. The general rubric for these phenomena is ”everyday resistance” – a term that is self-consciously homely.
