| Summary, etc. | Social Problems in India has established itself as a leading book in the field of sociology. The social problems in India today have their roots in the diversity of religion, language, region, culture and caste. Attachment to one's region, language, religion is a natural sentiment but when these attachments grow to an extreme level to breed intolerance for other religions, regions or languages, problems are bound to rise.<br/><br/>The nature of social problems of modern India are deeply rooted in the changes occurred the society during the last two hundred years. For a long time very few knew about the problems of Indian society. The processes of westernisation, industrialisation, formal education, commercialisation and modernisation have contributed towards the emergence of new situations which are incompatible with the traditional ways of living. Indian social order is gradually transforming itself from folk to secular.<br/><br/>Broadly, social problems can be divided into two types. Social problems at the individual level and social problems at the collective level. Social problems at the individual level include juvenile delinquency, drug addiction, suicide etc. Social problems at the collective level emerge when the mechanisms of social control fail to regulate the behaviour of its members or when there is breakdown of effective institutional functioning.<br/><br/>The publication will be useful to students, practicing librarians, teachers of library & information science, planners, policymakers in the field. |
