State in India, Pakistan, Russia and Central Asia
₹890.00
The book is a product of teaching interests and deals with the four significant case studies of postcommunist and developing states in historical, theoretical and empirical dimensions. The focus has been to look at their nature from the point of view of regime types and class essence, in other words on the margins of different social science perspectives. Theories dealing with state centric and society centric views have been examined in the historical internal and the international contexts. Speaking relatively, the State in India stands taller than Russia, peripheral Central Asia and authoritarian Pakistan with regard to its ontos and performance despite of emergency and current threats to its polity, if the latter does not mature. Militarism of Pakistan has been examined with reference to its lineages and international linkages. Unlike other case studies Pakistan is unique in representing a case apart on this score. Scholars, students and the ordinary reader will find this useful as a reading and as a input into further pursuits of issues of the nature of Statehood under the phase of globalisation. In that context again we notice that India has been able to deal with the related issues with more care to both autonomy within and sovereignty abroad. Challenges from the ordinary people, regional groupings and ethnicity have been highlighted. A book like this is always timely and need of the hour. It does not claim to offer the road map of the future except indicating the need of responding to the demands of the ordinary people.

Status of Women in Rural Societies
₹590.00
In India, about three fourth of the population, still live in rural areas. The notion that women in rural societies enjoy relatively higher social status appears to be a myth. Gender discrimination is a social reality irrespective of the nature of societies and no universally applicable rule exist to measure the degree of status of women in various societies. There is an imperative need to delineate the factors determining the social and economic status of women and to make efforts to strengthen the process that help women to raise their status in the society through educational, political and economic empowerment. The present volume contains 18 papers by eminent scholars who are authorities in the field of Social Anthropology. The papers included in this book explore recent issues related to the socioeconomic positions of women in tribal and rural societies. The issues includeHealth, Nutrition, Education, Adoption, Inheritance, Succession, Marriage, Divorce and participation in Panchayat Raj. The papers of the volume also conclude that in spite of Government’s so called efforts, the agony of rural women continues. It is hope that the material incorporated in this volume will provide fresh information to the researchers and scholars alike.
