Peasant mobilization

"Peasant mobilization" as a book category covers works that examine how rural smallholders, tenant farmers, agricultural laborers and other peasant groups organize collectively to pursue economic, social, political or cultural goals. It includes historical studies of land reform, peasant revolts and agrarian movements; sociological and political analyses of mobilization processes, organizations, and leadership; ethnographies and oral histories that record grassroots strategies and everyday resistance; comparative and regional studies of movements in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe; and fiction or memoir that dramatizes rural collective action. Common themes are land rights, tenancy and labor relations, state–peasant interactions, ideology and framing, gender and kinship in mobilization, nonviolent protest and armed insurgency, and the role of institutions (parties, unions, cooperatives, NGOs) and external actors. Such books appeal to scholars of social movements, agrarian studies, history, political science and development, as well as activists and policymakers interested in rural change, social justice and grassroots organizing.
