我们调查了历史上的土地分配是否决定了印度村庄的停滞或发展。本文的实证分析基于Banerjee和Newman(1993)的职业选择与经济发展模型。家族史是从800个家庭中随机抽样收集的。根据现在和祖父时代的资产-职业组合，家庭被划分为经济类别。通过历史村落的土地分配，描述了转型，并对偏远地区的转型进行了解释。我们还调查了社会身份的作用，发现预定部落比预定种姓更有可能陷入贫困。
We investigate whether historic land distribution determines stagnation or development of Indian villages. The empirical analysis is motivated by the Banerjee and Newman (1993) model of occupational choice and economic development. Family histories are collected for a random sample of 800 households. Households are classified into economic categories according to the assets-occupations mix at present and at grandfather's time. Transitions are described, and for a remote district explained, by the historic village land distribution. We also investigate the role of social identity, and find that scheduled tribes are more likely trapped in poverty than scheduled castes.
