Fashioning a postcolonial discipline M.N. Srinivas and Indian sociology/Satish Deshpande. Index. Anthropology and sociology have long histories in India. Yet with the exception of fieldwork experience there is neither much available on the institutional and material contexts of these disciplines nor on the practices of pioneering anthropologists and sociologists. The present book fills an important gap. While the sociology of India is not purely national phenomenon (scholars and centers studying Indian exist outside) and while western theories have been important this book shows that local influences and personalities played a major role in shaping the field. The volume spans a century of life and work from the late nineteenth to the late twentieth century and focuses on scholars with varying research trajectories. However it also shows the threads that bind these scholars their common concern with nation building social reform and the value of science. Combining biography institutional history and critical assessment this book will interest all anthropologists sociologists and South Asianists as well as those interested in intellectual history and biography. 552 pp.…

Commentators and social scientists in India have been understandably concerned with these clashes, as well as the peculiar nature of such communal violence in the country. Violent incidents continue to rock the nation, making this field a particularly important area of study. Sectarian Violence in India offers a cumulative account of social science research on the crucially important subject of communal violence from the late 1960s until about 2015. It brings together a critical selection of articles on sectarian violence in the post-Independence era from the Economic and Political Weekly, a journal.…

Soft cover. Condizione: New. Education in India is a site of intense contestations. Instead of addressing the multiple inequalities of caste, class, and gender that are embedded in the social fabric, the neoliberal state has privileged only the rhetoric of 'development', 'modernity', and the ideals of the Right to Education. Growing populist authoritarianism, consumerism, an all-enveloping mass media, and the rise of new aspirational classes have compounded the problem further. However, despite these significant limitations, education is increasingly seen as a prized good that even the most disadvantaged seek. Differentiation and Disjunction is an incisive interrogation of India's education system, and provides a sociological and social anthropological perspective to these complexities. The author examines a study, based on fifteen years of field work, of government elementary schools, highlighting their failure to consider the specific disadvantages of underprivileged children and their interests. She further discusses India's highly differentiated schooling systemthat range from the most neglected institutions offered to the poor to competitive international schools; studies policy documents to bring out the problems of decentralisation of elementary education administration; and critiques the limitations of current university education. To understand the problems and processes of marginalisation and discrimination in education and employment-seeking, she relies on the personal journey of a Dalit youth and poignant reflections from his diary. The book also provides a critical review of the key recommendations of the National Education Policy 2020, and suggests possible ways that can, in the future, transform education into a means of social levelling and democracy-building. This volume will interest scholars and practitioners of education, policy-makers, and readers who believe in education as a public good.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. This book is a focused and systematic documentation of the incidence and extent of the practice of untouchability in India. Based on the results of a large survey during 2001-2002, covering 565 villages in 11 states, it reveals that untouchability continues to be widely prevalent and is practised in one form or another in almost 80 per cent of the villages. Field data is supplemented by information about the forms of discrimination which Dalits face in everyday life, such as: The 'unclean' occupations open to them The double burden of Dalit women, who suffer both gender and caste discrimination The upper-caste violence with which any Dalit self-assertion is met The authors also describe Dalit efforts to overcome deeply entrenched caste hierarchies and assert their right to live with dignity. While the evidence presented here suggests that the more blatant and extreme forms of untouchability appear to have declined, discrimination continues and is most prevalent in the religious and personal spheres. The authors show that the notion of untouchability continues to pervade the public sphere, including a host of state institutions and the interactions that occur within them. Recommended reading for all those interested in social and political rights, and particularly students of sociology and social anthropology.…
