Middlemen of Modernity: Local Elites and Agricultural Development in Modern Japan - Studies of the Weatherhead East Asian Institute, Columbia University
Christopher Craig
Meiji-era agricultural policy called for village elites to use their wealth and local reputations to introduce improved farming methods. This book explores these elites and their actions in a region in northeastern Japan, presenting a view of the transformation of Japanese agriculture from the late nineteenth century to the mid-twentieth century.
