Peasants, defined as traditional, self-supporting, family based land-workers, make up the vast majority of the population in the world's poorest and most explosive areas. In recent years the study of the character of peasant societies-and in particular of their changing nature in the face of ' modernization ' -has rightly become one of the major growth-points in sociology. This volume of readings looks at five aspects of the subject: first, the units of peasant social organization-family farm, village community, etc. ; second, the typical forms of production and exchange; third, the peasantry as a class; fourth, peasant cultural patterns, including customs, religions and aesthetics; and finally, some of the prevailing attitudes towards peasant societies, and the shape of government policies.
