The Village in India

by Vandana Madan (Editor)

Overview

The village has epitomized Indian civilization and been the subject of much study and contemplation. The present volume attempts to address a wide number of interests—economic, political, cultural, social, gender—and presents a profile of processes and change in Indian villages based on publications over the last fifty years. The essays clearly demonstrate that every Indian village although similar in many ways, is also characterised by regional variations.
