AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This dissertation addresses the question of whether Taiwanese agriculture can maintain sustained growth as the society moves towards industrialization. Focusing on the pseudonymous village of 'San-lin' in the Tai-chung region of Tai-Chung HSIEN, Huang examines the efects of industrialization on regionalism, farm management, social interaction, and the supply, efficiency and intensity of farm labor, and concludes that industrialization has led to a rapid decline in agricultural productivity and the stagnation of the Taiwanese economy.
