Land Tenure Reforms under British Rule

LAND TENURE REFORMS
(New Land System / British Land Revenue)
In the Pre-British period in India there is no evidence to show the existence of private ownership of land. The peasants worked the land and the King of Government received a proportion of the produce, which was usually fixed at 1/6th to 1/12th of the produced and in times of trouble, was raised to 1/4th. The British conquest of India led to a change in the existing land system. The new system introduced by the British created two forms of property of land- landlordism in some parts of the country and the individual peasants’ proprietorship in others. The first step taken for this change was that of assessments and registration the ownership of land. The King’s or Government’s share was replaced by fixed money payments irrespective of the year’s production, in good or bad harvest, and whether more or less of the land was cultivated or not.
Lord Cornwallis created the first group of landlord in India by introducing the permanent settlement for Bengal, Bihar and Orissa in 1793, it was

    has the system of land registration achieved its aims

    In 1925, Parliament introduced a system of land title registration, where the title to land across England and Wales would be compiled. The Land Registration Act 1925 ('LRA 1925') planned to create a 'one-stop shop', to eventually eradicate the need for individual title deeds. Subsequently, the Land Registration Act 2002 ('LRA 2002') set out the law of land registration, representing an attempt to improve and modernize the relevant legislation. The core objectives of both Acts remained the same, which is ultimately to promote marketability of land. Some argue that the system has failed in its attempt to achieve this due to the presence of overriding interests, especially relating to third party rights, which are not registered in the Land Register. However, this essay seeks to argue that overriding interests were a deliberate exception to the Register, and the LRA 2002 has in fact achieved a delicate balance between promoting marketability and protecting these disorganised interests, and in doing so realised its objectives.…

    India During The Age Of British Imperialism

    During the Age of Imperialism, the British was rapidly taking control of India throughout the 1700’s and 1800’s, despite Indian opposition. British control in India all began after their victory at the Battle of Plassey in 1757 and Battle of Buxar in 1764. Following this battle, in 1765 Britain accepted administrative authority of Bengal. Then, proceeding over the next century, the British expanded their territorial control and influence through treaties, agreements, conquests and annexations leading them to the year 1857 when they controlled roughly two-thirds of India’s land and approximately four-fifths of the population. By the year of 1857 the British had gained complete political ¬¬¬¬¬¬¬control of India.…

    British Imperialism In India

    These were set up by the British East India Trading Company. After the Murghal Empire began to collapse at the beginning of the 18th century, the British and the French joined forces to take control in 1757. The British would rule for almost a hundred years. The area was governed by the East India Trading Company, they themselves regulated by the British government, whose control was a little lax up until the 1800’s. The East India Company had an army staffed by British officers and Indian soldiers called sepoys. The British Empire used the Indian colony as a source for raw materials and as an economic dumping ground, utilizing the many Indian citizens as both workforce and consumer. The Indian people were only allowed to buy British goods and were not allowed to compete with Indian made goods on the economic market. Early British intervention in Indian systems of government was actually quite relaxed. Indians for the most part still controlled tax collection, which operated under their system of land taxation, where producers gave one third of their yield to collectors and other administrators, who could then keep some for themselves. British judges even served Hindu or Islamic law, as these were the practices that the Indian people based their laws on. Warren Hastings, in charge of Bengal in the years 1772-1785, was a firm believer in the Indian ‘ancient constitution’. This changed at the…

    Industrialized Labor

    In reaching an agreement to use cash, individuals conceded their right to have an equal chance at acquiring un-owned land. This was in contrast to the actual goal of developing money to expand man’s ambition to acquire more of what seemed to be an abundant free take for all. However, in reality, the emergence of money resulted in the varied accretion of goods and land because of the differing capacities of men, leading to huge disparities in accumulated wealth. In this sense, money facilitated the entrenchment on some individual’s rights who unfortunately came to lose out on the liberty they had previously had where shares were more equitable.…

    The Legacy of Malthus

    This movie looks into the issue of poverty prevalent in rural India. Deepa Dhanraj takes us from one corner of rural India where poverty persists to the Scottish highs which witnessed highland clearances in the 19th century. Scottish high landlords had legal claim over the common land on which shared croppers survived. Landlords rented the land to tenants who further let it to sub tenants. At the end of 18th century, volume sheep farming for wool and meat became immensely profitable than renting it to shared croppers in Scottish highs. The landlords claimed that due to increased unchecked population growth the produce from the land was insufficient to sustain the population. Shared croppers were legally and forcefully evicted from the land. There was misery, starvation and cycle of poverty amongst the evicted people by the more powerful who had law and authorities on their side. Many died, thousands migrated outside England, and some were allotted land along the shores which was uncultivable while others were displaced internally to big cities in England as cheap labor.…

The rule of the British in India may be the most controversial aspect of the British Empire, aside from their rulings other continents.…

    Land Rights

    The land rights debate in the 1970’s was a tough and hard-fought journey for the Aboriginal people. In the 1967 Referendum, Australians showed their support for the Aboriginals, by voting to change the Constitution to include the indigenous in the Census and giving overriding authority to the Commonwealth government regarding Aboriginal affairs. Ralph Hunt, of the National Coalition Party and Federal Minister in 1971 stated ‘To just set aside land because Aboriginal groups and tribes believe they have a special right to it tends to only perpetuate the tribal system’, explaining that Indigenous people did not have the power nor authority to regain land that they believed belonged to them. However, by this stage, Aboriginal people were ‘less inclined to have white politicians deciding upon their best interests’. The quotation particularly reflected the ‘Assimilation’ policy in reference to the Indigenous people. In 1970, the Aborigines Advancement League had sent a petition to the United Nations, requesting that the union use its powers to uphold Aboriginal rights to the land. This strategy also failed.…

    This huge wave of land redistribution, carried out by peasants themselves through their land communities, swallowed not only lands of great landowners but also lands of independent peasants who had until then produced mainly for sales in markets. Although additional distribution of land portions slightly increased the average area of peasant holdings, agriculture lost its connection with markets and industrial production. As a whole, peasant holdings were leveled out into small-scale self-sufficient…

    Taxation in Japan

    The role of taxation in the transformation of the Japanese Economy Introduction Before the Meiji restoration under the feudal Tokugawa Shogunate, taxation was mainly a tool for warfare and military power. The system was highly regressive and pressed lightly on the rich and profit-earners. It was calculated to preserve a very unequal distribution on incomes and to stimulate the accumulation of private capital. This tendency somehow continued and was magnified before W.W.II when direct taxation was introduced for a more equal and balanced system.…

    Sistemi Gjuhesor I Saussure Sipas Kendveshtrimit Strukturalist

    Dallimi që Sosyr bëri ndërmjet fjalëve “gjuhë” dhe “ligjërim” në librin e tij “Kursi I Gjuhësisë së Përgjithshme” shënoi fillimin e perdorimit të termit “Strukturë” në fushën e gjuhësisë; si dhe shërbeu si një udhërrëfyes për shumë gjuhëtarë të tjerë. Në thelb të Gjuhësisë së Saussure është pohimi në vijim: Një gjuhë është një sistem në të cilin të gjitha elementet përshtaten me njëri-tjetrin, dhe ku vlera e e çdo elementi varet nga bashkëjetesa e njëkohshme me të gjithë të tjerët (Saussure, 1983, f. 113). Harris (1983, f. ix) shkruan se ideja që Saussure hodhi mbi lidhjen që ekzistonte mes gjuhës dhe strukturës bëri të mundur që libri i “Kursit të Gjuhësisë së Përgjithshme” të zinte “një vend me rëndësi të veçantë në historinë e të menduarit Perëndimor" dhe të bëhej një ndër tekstet më të rëndësishme "jo vetëm në zhvillimin e gjuhësisë, por edhe në formimin e asaj lëvizje të gjerë intelektuale të shekullit të njëzetë të njohur si 'Strukturalizmi". Në Kursin e Gjuhësisë së Përgjithshme, Saussure (1983) propozoi një model shkencor të gjuhës, si një sistem të mbyllur elementesh dhe rregullash që mund të përshkruhet në mënyrë krejtësisht të pavarur nga subjektiviteti psikologjik i çdo përdoruesi të veçantë të asaj gjuhe. Për shembull, në qoftë se Saussure do të analizonte një paragraf të një teksti të shkruar cfarëdo, ai nuk do të ishte i interesuar në mendimet e veçanta apo unike që autori i atij teksti ka hedhur në letër, apo fjalë të veçanta të tekstit që paraqiten para syve të lexuesit. Përkundrazi, Saussure do të përpiqej të përshkruante atë sistem gjuhe që të dyja palët - si autori që e ka shkruar tekstin, ashtu dhe lexuesi duhet të kenë të të përbashkët për të bërë te mundur këtë komunikim, dhe në veçanti, rregullat me të cilat një sistem i tillë është i qeverisur.…
