| Tiivistelmä: | The industrialization drive of the 1960s in developing countries failed to absorb either the urban unemployed or the new wave of rural-urban migrants it triggered off. An effective industrialization strategy is suggested which must therefore include measures to improve the lot of rural workers and keep them in the countryside. Otherwise, peasants unable to migrate will continue to become involved in "forced commerce" (exchange relations that trap them in poverty). A combination of measures is suggested to increase the flexibility of real urban industrial wages and to create income-generating opportunities for the rural poor. In the absence of land redistribution, which would meet with strong opposition, commercial reform offers better prospects. |
