| Summary, etc | Structure and Change in Indian Society is a landmark collection of anthropological and sociological studies that examines the organization and transformation of Indian society. Edited by Milton Singer and Bernard S. Cohn, the volume brings together twenty influential research papers that analyze the dynamic relationships among caste, family, village communities, religion, politics, and economic institutions. The contributors challenge the view of Indian society as static by demonstrating how traditional institutions have continually adapted to historical, political, and economic changes. Through detailed field studies conducted in villages, towns, and urban centers, the book explores processes such as social mobility, modernization, urbanization, land reforms, democratic governance, education, and industrialization. It shows how caste, kinship, and local communities have evolved while remaining interconnected within broader social and cultural networks. Widely regarded as a foundational text in Indian sociology and social anthropology, the book provides valuable theoretical and methodological insights into the study of social structure and social change. It is an essential resource for students and researchers in sociology, anthropology, political science, development studies, and South Asian studies. |
