Debt and Death in Rural India is a study of farmer suicides in rural Punjab from the mid-1980s up to 2008. Based on comprehensive original research work, it examines various factors ranging from central to state policies and critically analyzes political, economic and social trends that led to the dismal condition of the farmers between 1988 and 2008.

This study presents a unique trajectory on the issue of farmer suicides and contextualizes the problem within a historical and geographical framework. It includes interviews of family members of a number of farmers who committed suicide in the subdivision of Sangrur district of Punjab, India, which constitutes the area of the study.

This outstanding work analyzes the interplay of economic and political forces and recommends concrete policy measures to enable Punjab to break out of the vicious farmer-suicide cycle.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Thoroughly Research Book that Provides the Disturbing Insights to India's Rural Landscapes - Epidemic of Farmer Suicides
    Reviewed in the United States on February 14, 2013
    Thoroughly researched book that requires long visits to the rural lands of India and the present a contrast to the glitzy India. It is a must read for those with interests in human rights, socio economic justice, environmental issues and suicide studies.

    Why the epicenter of the Farmer Suicide Discourse revolves around the Vidharbha Region, in India, the book actually highlights the reason why Punjab's suicides have remained as a background topic. This alarming epidemic needs to be addresses ASAP before the phenomenon takes a violent turn.
