Brief Description:
This three-volume collection of studies carried out by the Indian Council of Social Science Research (ICSSR) contains relevant and dominant streams of researches conducted in sociology and social anthropology during the last decade. It looks at the history of Indian sociology presenting its theories and knowledge. It uses first-hand research by senior scholars which are unpublished elsewhere. Further contents are the Dalit studies, gender, sociology of tribes and communication research in India. This work discusses key concepts of development and education, as well as justice and sociology of law.

Brief Description:
Volume 1: This volume provides a comprehensive treatment of the Indian industrialization process since independence covering all the important aspects: trends and patterns, regionalization, employment, informal sector, corporate savings, tax and surplus, concentration, foreign direct investment, and development of indigenous technology and patents.

Volume 2: The Indian economy has successfully integrated itself with the rest of the world in the past two decades. Not only has its external-trade (share in global-trade) grown considerably, but it has also received significantly higher FDI and FII inflows. As a result, India is considered among the foremost beneficiaries of globalization. However, this development is only one side of the story and it has been achieved at a cost of policy independence and increased sensitivity to external shocks. This volume illustrates such costs and attempts to redefine the priorities for a low per-capita income nation like India.

Volume 3: This volume is largely a critical review of macroeconomic issues such as monetary policy, fiscal policy, financial liberalization, inter-sectoral linkages, open economy macroeconomics, labour conditions, and inter-governmental fiscal transfers.
