Review :
`highly exciting and provocative′ -- Financial Express 4.5.86

`this collection is distinguished by the lucidity and...cogency of the diverse range of arguments.′ -- The Journal of Contemporary Asia 1987

@ ′.........fifteen learned papers by a group of distinguished scholars representing a wide range of points of view and coming from ten different countrie3s......Marx′s notion or view of pre-colonial India′s village community, whose original form and subsequent evolution is the subject of an important essay by Diptendra Banerjee, who.........has also written an equally perceptive and well documented introductory essay seeking to reconstruct a general theory of pre-capitalist modes of production......This first serious study of the little known works of Marx is perhaps the most valuable single item in the volume. Mukhia deserves much credit........an admirable work......A valuable contribution on the State and Society in Pakistan by Hamza Alavi which certainly marks an important chapter in the book.′ Indian Historical Review Vol 11 Nos 1/2 1985
