This study compares the community life of villagers in two widely separate parts of the earth -- western Japan and the east coast of Spain fronting the Mediterranean Sea near Valencia. Here are farmlands half a world apart, yet strikingly alike even in visible details, being well-watered coastal plains given over to small, intensively cultivated rice fields wherever water can be led by a complex system of irrigation canals. Attention is called particularly to the elaborate irrigation systems, each the product of about 1,000 years of development, and to the prevalence of smallholder owner-farmers in the two areas. The central question treated here is how closely patterns of landholding and productive technology may be linked to basic patterns of local social organization.
