From the book cover:
In the first part of this pioneering study, John Duncan Powell traces the formation of a successful alliance between the peasant masses, who sought land reform, and a small urban elite, which desperately needed a political power base. Part II is devoted to an empirical structural-functional analysis of the alliance.
