| Summary, etc | This article explores the phenomenon of agrarian slavery and serfdom among the Paleurs, described as bonded “farm savants” in conical Andhra. It examines the historical and sociological dimensions of bonded labor, situating the Paleurs within broader agrarian hierarchies and exploitative rural structures. The study highlights how cultural practices, economic dependency, and social stratification perpetuated systems of servitude, shaping both labor relations and agrarian productivity. By reassessing the lived experiences of bonded farm workers, the paper contributes to debates on agrarian history, labor exploitation, and the persistence of caste-like hierarchies in rural India. One of the striking feature of the South Indian rural mille is the large number of farm laborers who have served the same families of landowners, year after year. Quite often, they are bound toothier masters by deep rooted tradition of mutual obligations and responsible (GOl, minters of Labour 1952: 1). An agricultural labourer may be defined, in a board sense, as person who derives a large portion of his income from labour on farm land for maintained of himself and his dependents (Sayanna 1949: 232). – Reproduced |
