The main focus of the book is on the land struggles. Professor Zamosc adopts a structural perspective, examining the agrarian contradictions that propelled the peasant struggles, the changing relationship between the peasant movement and the state, and the political and ideological content of the peasant challenge. He explores these issues in the light of the shifting patterns of class alignments and antagonisms that marked the rise and decline of peasant radicalism during the 1970s, and offers some suggestions about the significance of ANUC's struggles for the understanding of peasant movements in general.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eList of tables, figures and maps\u003cbr\u003e Foreword Teodor Shanin\u003cbr\u003e Foreword by UNRISD\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e List of abbreviations\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e 1.
