520			_aThis commentary offers comparative reflections on partial resolutions and mutations of “the agrarian question” in selected historical, structural, and institutional settings. Some observations on the exposition of this question in classical political economy are followed by the contrasting cases of Meiji Japan and the Soviet Union, and then by focusing on processes under conditions of high collectivism in Maoist, and peasantist de-collectivisation in post-Maoist rural China. Finally, it evinces a sequence of transformations of the agrarian question under contemporary conditions of neoliberal and post-neoliberal capitalist globalisation whereby it permutates successively into interconnected labour, demographic, social, and political questions that are overlaid by questions of environmental and systemic stability and sustainability.-Reproduced https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s41027-025-00604-x
