Economic reforms and social transformation
Ahlawat, S.R. (ed.)
Economic reforms and social transformation - Jaipur Rawat 2008 - 434 p.
India has experienced the process of economic reforms for more than a decade. Since its inception in 1991, Indian society is passing through rapid social upheaval owing to liberalization, privatization, globalization, advanced information technology, consumerism etc. The economic reforms have accelerated the process of social transformation, which, in turn, has thrown a big challenge to social scientists for understanding the new social order.
This volume examines social transformation in India in three dominant spheres, viz., agrarian and rural transformations, rural power structure and transformation of excluded and the population, gender empowerment and transformation. In each section the editor has raised certain issues for the critical examination which the contributors lucidly focused in their papers. It is an important contribution towards developing debate on economic reforms in India, which is essentially unequal and marginalizing besides being anti-poor.
