Description

In the study of politics in recent years there has been a growing realization of the need to identify and characterize the political underpinnings of change in an enlarged analytic context. This volume focuses attention on diverse aspects of change from a perspective that seeks to combine analyses exploring the complexities underlying class formation with those of transformative changes in Indian politics, society, and economy. It takes within its compass such fundamental questions as the impact of the New Economic Policy on people and the trade union movement, the new agrarianism, the role of the Left, the changing forms of violence in Indian society, the insidious virus of communalism, human rights in the context of politics, law, and social policy, the New Education Policy and the future of education, the changing political and natural environment ...seeking in each case not only to understand the reality today, but what it bodes for the India of tomorrow.
