Contested Transformations
Changing Economies and Identities in Contemporary India
Mary E. John, Praveen Kumar Jha, Surinder S. Jodhka
Such are the constraints of disciplinary boundaries that even when scholars come together in a collective effort to analyse recent processes, their focus narrows down to specific themes, invaribaly privileging one kind of methodological or conceptual framework over others. The present volume of essays- the outcome of seminar` Changing Social Formaitons in Contemporary India`, organized under the auspices of the School of Social Sciences of JNU, New Delhi, in 2003- represents an attempt to over come some the limitations of this trend.
