contents <p><span lang="EN-US">The Research Paper “Free and Unfree Agrarian relations in Colonial India” explores the existence of various types of free alongside Unfree labourers during the colonial India. According to the nationalist and many other economic historians, the various colonial land settlements, combined with high revenue demands, resulted in making small peasants subservient to moneylenders and bigger landowners. This led to the ‘gradual transference of land from the hands of the original cultivators to the moneylenders. As a result, instead of developing free labour forms, as was happening in many advanced capitalist countries in the West, empirical evidences pointed towards the existence of attached labourers (long duration labour) in various forms even in some of the most developed regions of British India. </span></p>
