it is analysed from an adequate theoretical viewpoint and that in this respect we might well be on the right track by conceiving it as a 'peasant(ization)' ::problematic. :&for~~nte:ringfurth~into !l1i§
Notes 1. Keith Griffin (1979) has calculated rates of growth forthetwo decades 1955-65 and 1965-75. These are presented in Tables 1.1 and 1.2. 2. See the statistical series reconstructed by Paul Bairoch (1975) on pp. 16-19 and in Thbles 4and 5. 3. See 'Special Feature; FAO Indices of Food and Agricultural Production', in: Monthly Bulletin of Statistics, Vol. 2 (November 1979), No. 11, Thble 1, pp. 12113. From the yearly indices of agricultural production per head published by FAO we quote the following overview: 1970 1971 1972 1973 1974 World Africa Latin America Asia 100 100 100 101 101 100 99 100 99 102 102 99 93 97 98 97 103 98 101 101 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 World Africa Latin America Asia 103 94 103 104 103 93 104 104 104 106 105 90 90 88 106 106 107 104 106 105 4. These index numbers, which were ingeniously reconstructed by Bairoch (1975), express agricultural production per capita in 'direct' calories, i.e. in those 'calories which have not undergone a transformation in thecourseoflivestock rearing' (see note 15, p. 214). The exclusion of women from the population employed in agriculture is justified by the fact that the criteria used in different countries to determine their employment vary too widely (p. 22). 5. Ibidem: Table 8. All indexes are based on five-year averages. The figures quoted here refer to the period 1960/64-1968/72. 6. See Ibidem: Table 10. The weighted average rose from 5.0in 1964/50t05.7 in 1953/57 and declined next to 5.5 in 1968/72. 7. See Polly Hill (1970:21): 'In some districts "native farmers" (i.e. farmers who were born in the district in question) predominate and some of these farmers may, if one wishes, be referred to as "peasants" - though for myself, I prefer not to use that word with all its emotional overtones, and to refer to "sedentary" or "non-migrant" farmers.' 8. It is in this sense that Griffin uses the word 'peasant'; see 'peasant-biased' technical change (1979: 49ff.). 5
