Summary and recommendations. Bibliography. There is a fairly wide recognition that Indian agriculture has been passing through serious crisis over a decade. Two different faces of crisis are always differentiated, 'agrarian crisis' and 'agricultural crisis'. 'Agrarian Crisis' is structural and institutional in nature, as could be seen in growing marginalization and failure of support system due to the unfinished agenda of shifting institutional emphasis from state to the market. 'Agricultural Crisis' may be seen as referring to performance of agricultural sector in terms of changes in growth of productivity and production and input and technology related factors. The most striking feature of Indian agriculture over the last decade is the reinforcing and interacting of agricultural and agrarian crisis culminating in ever increasing incidence of farmers suicides. Any policy adopted in reviewing this sector and correspondingly providing livelihood security to the farmers requires an indepth understanding of different dimensions including causes, extent and consequences of the crisis. Only with a comprehension of this, intervention strategies can be adopted so as to prevent such situations in the future and also rebuild household livelihood on a sustainable basis. Based on this background, the book intends to unravel the factors and processes underlying the agrarian crisis on the one hand and the consequences of it on the other. The study is particularly focused on the state of Kerala, since Kerala's agriculture has some unique features including highly fragmented and small size of holdings, homestead farming with mixed crops, larger area under commercial crops, export orientation crops, high credit and hired labour intensive cultivation and higher indebtedness of farmers which exacerbated the crisis resulting in a suicide of around 2000 farmers and snatching the livelihood security of a vast majority.

Tagore, one of the widely travelled persons of his time, visited Japan five times. He was fascinated by Japanese tradition, intuitive happiness, human relations and their sensitive attitude towards beauty. At the same time, he did not hesitate to denounce the rise of Western nationalism in Japan. The impact of the materialistic civilization of the West on Japan disturbed the poet. This book is a compilation of papers presented at an international seminar on Tagore s Japanese connection, entitled, Tagore and Japan: A Retrospection, jointly organized by Sakura Academy and the School of Languages, Jadavpur University. The seminar was held in 2011, the year which witnessed commemoration of the bard s 150th birth anniversary all over the country. The papers include different aspects of the Tagore-Japan relationship. The book may provide the reader a greater understanding of the historical and cultural relationship between the two countries, especially in aesthetic and spiritual affinities on the one hand and the poet s critical evaluation of Japanese politics on the other.
