In this volume, Roy examines the role played by the state in boosting food production in two major, but significantly different, developing economies. He contrasts the policies and successes of India and Nigeria showing that self-sufficiency does not bring equity in consumption (in the case of India) and that selective introduction of new technologies (in Nigeria) raises concerns about a lack of equity between regions and between classes. After interdisciplinary analyses and village-level case studies from both countries Roy presents a conceptual analysis appropriate to most developing countries.
