Alternatives in Industrial Development: Sugarcane Processing in India (Alternatives in Development)

By H.H. de Haan

This is the first volume in a series of studies sponsored under the Indo-Dutch Programme on Alternatives in Development. This study analyses the dilemma of increasing inequality of income distribution and reduced opportunities for employment often produced by technological progress. The basis is a case study on the processing of sugarcane in India. The sugar and gur industry is characterized by a large variety of technologies and scales and therefore provides an excellent basis for tracing the process of technological development.
