Summary, etc. India is entering a qualitatively new phase of social, economic and cultural development. There is a crisis of paradigms and ideologies about what India seeks to be, or what are its visions of the future. This volume offers an analysis of the changes in the social structure, cultural values and institutions in India, and seeks to assess their implication to the contemporary problems. The author deals with questions such as: Is their a continuity in India’s process of social change? What is the relationship between the forces of societal resilience with those of social transformation? What is the shape of the Indian “nationalism” as a value system today and how are the emerging social and economic force defining the issues of ethnicity, nation-state and civilization. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Professor Yogendra Singh is currently Professor of Sociology at the Centre for the Study of Social Systems, School of Social Sciences, Jawaharlal Nehru University.
