Outline of a methodology for a survey of an agricultural project
1977
A project being carried out is a whole in which the complete analysis must take into account all aspects: economic, social, political, cultural and even moral. The easiest surveys are apparently the economic and social survey which do not require an intimate knowledge of the environment. This impression is given by the fact that these aspects lend themselves to “universal” unites of measurement. This is partly, but only partly, true. To conduct a proper survey, one has first to master certain basic concepts; and then to know the previous social structure, particularly in relation to the concept of tributary mode of production as well as the concept of transition to capitalism or to socialism from that, and integrate this concept into the specific context of the project.
