For the opposition between "nuclear areas" of settled agriculture and the wastes with their warriors, see B. Stein, "Agrarian Integration in South India," in \*Land Control and Social Structure in Indian History\*, ed. R. E. Frykenberg (Madison, 1969), 175–216, esp. 188, 192, 206. Stein concentrates on the "nuclear areas" and their institutions, but their relationship with the "tribal" areas is also made clear. Though he deals with South India, there is no reason to assume that the opposition was limited to the South. In fact, it is not limited to India either, see, for instance, \*Land\* as against \*wald\* (in O. Brunner, \*Land und Herrschaft\*, 6th ed. (Darmstadt, 1970), 185ff.; also W. Berges, "Land und Unland in der Mittelalterlichen Welt," \*Festschrift Hermann Heimpel\* (Göttingen, 1972), 399–439. The opposition recalls the ancient one of \*grāma\* and \*araṇya\*, see chapter 8, section 7. - [Previous: c19.s12.18](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.heesterman-1985.c19.s12.18) - [Next: c19.s12.20](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.heesterman-1985.c19.s12.20) - [Up: c19.s12](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.heesterman-1985.c19.s12) ## Linked texts (1) - [Ṛgvedasaṃhitā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.samhita.rg) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.heesterman-1985.c19.s12.19](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.heesterman-1985.c19.s12.19) · Pramāṇa
