This work documents the social and environmental consequences of commercial forestry in the watershed of the Ganges, even as it focuses on wide-ranging peasant struggles in defence of forest rights in this region generally. The author challenges Eurocentric theories which hold that peasants and peasant movements will disappear in the modern world. This revised edition contains a new epilogue and an appendix on the development of Indian environmental history in the last decade of the 20th century.
