Surplus and financial transfers in agriculture, the Syrian case This paper delays with economic research on the role of agricultural activity in the economic activity in the economic take-off. In spite of the oil revolution, this role is of real importance but cannot be evaluated. Monographic studies are good values in lack of official statistics. - Surplus et transferts financiers dans l'agriculture : quelques problèmes de méthode à propos de la Syrie - Michel Chatelus p. 239-247 Surplus and financial transfers in agriculture, the Syrian case This paper delays with economic research on the role of agricultural activity in the economic activity in the economic take-off.

- Monde paysan et industrialisation en Syrie - Elisabeth Longuenesse p. 249-255 Rural society and industrialisation Though the Syrian economy has remained at country stage, the rural classes play a great part in the industrialization process, through their purchases (tractors, fertilizers), industrial crops (cotton, tobacco, sugar beets) and changes in occupations often characterised by the principle of double employment.
- Etat et paysans en Syrie - Michel Seurat p. 257-270 Since the March 1963 Revolution, the quasi- feudal relations between landlords and farmers have been superseded by a direct link between the latter and the State. The control of the peasantry by trade-unions and various associations conjures up the idea of a new form oriental despotism.

- Les coopératives agricoles en Syrie : l'exemple de l'oasis de Damas - Anne-Marie Bianquis p. 289-303 Agricultural cooperatives are the direct outcome of the 1958 Land Reform. They aim at providing small farmers with structures and helping them modernize their equipment and farming. Until 1974, they essentially played a technical role but the structures provided are now mainly administrative and political. This doubtless makes for modernization but as markets are still controlled by private interests, thé farmers have not been able to pay off their debts.
- Maîtrise de l'eau et société dans la plaine du Ghab - Jean Métral, Françoise Métral p. 305-325 Water management and society in the Ghab country (Syria) The Ghab project (on the middle part of the Oronte river) is the first irrigation major project worked out in Syria. The central authority supervises water, earth and production. By the mean of planification it prepares field work, credit and management. The new holders are facing new problems with water management and policy. But tribal and familial structures are still surviving.
