Introduction to Indian Socail Anthropology English 2006

This Book Deals With The Issues Regarding Authenticity, The Relation Between Social Anthropology And Modernity, The Question Of What Constitutes An Intellectual Tradition, And The Political Plenitude Of Social Science Concepts Which Not Only Capture The Intellectual Climate In The Country But Also Show The Complex Interrelations Between The Emergence Of An Area Of Study And The Traffic Of Concepts And Concerns Between Scholars Who Have Been Socialized In Different Traditions Of Scholarship. We Hope That The Complex Relations Between Theory And Ethnography, And Between Space And Place, Will Be Evident In The Chapters That Follow And Will Inform The Theory And Practice Of Social Anthropology Both Within And Outside The Country.
