Summary: This small volume brings together three different pieces of writing originally contributed to different projects of investigation sponsored by UNESCO. Though written for different occasions the three parts will, we hope, be found to complement one another and to provide a fairly comprehensive picture of the present position of the study, teaching and research in the subject of political science in India. To those whose task it is to organize the acade mic work in this subject in.qur, universities such a picture may be particularly useful. Gimpy The article appearing in the first part was published in the Spring 1952 issue of the International Social Science Bulletin (Vol. IV, No. 1). A French version of it appeared simultaneously in the Bulletin International Des Sciences Sociales. Its purpose was not so much to take stock of the work done in the subject as to evaluate the main trends in political science studies in India. The second part consists of a survey of work done in the field of political science during the 30 years preceding the survey. It also indicates the lacunae in our present studies and suggests the lines along which future work may be usefully undertaken. It was published in the volume entitled Contemporary Political Science (UNESCO, 1950). The third and by far the longest part of this book con tains a comprehensive report on the teaching of political science in India in all its aspects. Prepared in June 1951 at the request of the International Political Science Ass ciation, Paris, it is being published here for the first time We are conscious of a slight overlapping in certain aspects of the three parts. But we have thought it advi sable to leave the three parts substantially unchanged in order not to disturb the unity of each of them. We record with pleasure our gratefulness to the autho rities of UNESCO for granting us permission to reproduce the first two parts and to publish the third part for the first time in this volume. We have no doubt that but for the sponsorship of UNESCO none of the projects of inquiry conducted on an international plane to which the present volume owes its origin would have been undertaken. We take this opportunity to bring to the notice of the reader the valuable role UNESCO is playing in establishing greater contacts between scholars in different fields and in different climes.
