ویرایش شده توسط Neera Chandhoke و Praveen Priyadarshi، Contemporary India به مسائلی می پردازد که دولت-ملت و جامعه مدنی با دیدگاه های مختلف روبرو هستند: علوم سیاسی، جامعه شناسی، اقتصاد و تاریخ. این کتاب از نظر موضوعی به سه بخش اقتصاد، جامعه و سیاست تقسیم شده است و شامل مباحثی در مورد موضوعات گسترده ای مانند فقر، نابرابری های منطقه ای، سیاست ها، تغییرات اجتماعی و جنبش های اجتماعی، عناصر دموکراسی، پویایی نظام حزبی، سکولاریسم، فدرالیسم، تمرکززدایی و غیره. رشته مشترک دموکراسی، که جنبه های مختلف هند معاصر را در کنار هم قرار می دهد، به عنوان چارچوب فهم در اینجا عمل می کند و زیربنای بحث ها در همه فصل ها است. این کتاب شامل 23 فصل اصلی، کاملاً تحقیق شده و به روز از نویسندگانی است که دروس مختلف علوم اجتماعی را تدریس می کنند. نویسندگان بدون به خطر انداختن پیچیدگی استدلالهای خود، از سبکی شفاف و محاورهای استفاده کردهاند که حتی خوانندگانی را که هیچ دانش قبلی در مورد موضوعات ندارند، جذب میکند. مشارکتکنندگان همچنین واژهنامه، سؤالات و فهرستهای خواندنی بیشتر را با در نظر گرفتن نیازهای امتحانی دانشآموزان ارائه کردهاند.
Edited by Neera Chandhoke and Praveen Priyadarshi, Contemporary India addresses issues facing the nation-state and civil society from diverse perspectives: those of political science, sociology, economics and history. The book is thematically divided into three parts Economy, Society, and Politics and includes discussions on topics as wide-ranging as poverty, regional disparities, policies, social change and social movements, the elements of democracy, dynamics of the party system, secularism, federalism, decentralization, and so on. The common thread of democracy, which strings together different aspects of contemporary India, serves as the framework of understanding here and underlies discussions in all the chapters. The book includes 23 original, well-researched and up-to-date chapters by authors who teach different courses in the social sciences. Without compromising on the complexity of their arguments, the authors have used a lucid, conversational style that will attract even readers who have no previous knowledge of the topics. The contributors have also provided a glossary, questions and further readings lists with students examination needs in mind.
