Abstract
Using the notion of an fund, the author describes the processes that account for stratification within peasant communities, and the role population increase has played in generating new classes. The newest and fastest growing of these classes comprise the landless laborers of town and country - a group which do not possess an establishment fund in the form of a stock of productive capital or regular wage labor in the primary or secondary sectors of the economy. Revolutionary, reformist, or counter-insurgency programs that concentrate on the issue of tenancy are irrelevant to this class.
