"The bane of the caste system has been the hierarchical stratification of the privileges and ritual statuses which were totally ascribed. While the higher castes enjoyed higher ritual status, socio-economic privileges, education and learning, the lower castes were deprived of all good things in life. The subsequent scriptures including the Puranas, Geeta and Manu's Dharmashastra rationalized all such inequalities attributing them to Karma. The rigidity of the caste structure and its attendant ramification of socio-economic inequality are based on the endogamy that is practiced which ensures privileges to higher castes on a permanent basis. The privileges that once enjoyed by higher castes are preserved to their progeny through inheritance, while handicaps are sustained by the lower castes on a permanent basis. The privatization and globalization processes are making the situation more alarming by further widening the gap between the haves and the have nots, the terms that could be generally substituted for upper and lower castes. The only way out is to sensitize the lower castes of their miserable plight and to enlighten them about paths and possibilities of their redemption. The post-independent Indian state too had undertaken many ameliorative programmes but the caste still remains a massive deadweight on the Indian society obstructing the birth of a new humanity informed by equality, freedom and fraternity. In this book a number of scholars have put forward their ideas and reflections on how to eradicate the caste and to facilitate the birth of a new humanitarian social order." (jacket).

Sudarshan and Syeda Parveen. Index. Indian retail business is undergoing dramatic transformation. The retail sector employs about 8 per cent of the country's workforce and is characterized by a high degree of fragmentation with over 5 million outlets. Due to their small size Indian retailers have very little bargaining power vis a vis manufacturers unlike in the case of retailers in developed countries. The corner grocer or the Kirana store is a key element in the retail business in India due to the housewife's unwillingness to go long distances for purchasing daily needs. In the emerging scenario traditional formats of retailing (like hawkers grocers and paan shops) are now co existing with modern formats like supermarkets and non store retailing channels such as multi level marketing and teleshopping. The structure of a country's retail sector has an enormous influence on marketing strategy and marketing activities of firms. The Indian retail sector has arrived at a very critical stage. Stores in modern formats have emerged in the metropolitan cities but the bulk of the retail Sales still take place through traditional retail formats. The development of modern retailing is of great interest to marketing scholars practitioners and policy makers. The emergence of new formats of retailing has attracted the attention of government functionaries company managers and economic analysts. This book analyses the developments in retailing in India. It consists of 20 papers authored by scholars in the field. This work will appeal to all categories of readers particularly students of business management economics and commerce company executives government officials and Non Governmental Organisations monitoring developments in the Indian economy. 264 pp.

A collection of fifteen scholarly articles, this volume focuses on the convergences and divergences which exist in Indian aesthetics, focusing both on Theoretical Explorations and their Applications. Indian aesthetics encompasses traditions and texts that focus on literary, visual, structural and performative productions of a wide range of art forms that delight, entertain, provoke their audience in ways that are relevant to the life. These art forms result in various responses such as delight, emotional relish, and enjoyment. In their convergence with other arts, different Indian art forms, be it cinema, dance, drama, music, literature or sculpture, have practised a give and take policy all through their history. Most of them are based on the rasa theory as the connecting thread. Talking about the divergences, the book details how different art forms emerged from a common root and shaped up as separate entities within the Indian framework, while embedding divergent viewpoints opening up the possibility of diverse views on the same concept. These developments also hold true for modern art forms like cinema. The volume provides illustrations taken from a wide range of art forms ancient and contemporary, talking about the diverse applications of Indian aesthetics across multiple art forms in recent times.

Even after more than fifty years of development planning Indian economy continues to be agriculture based. The dependence of people on agriculture did not decline in a scale comparable to the reduction in the contribution of agriculture to the National Gross Domestic Product. Despite the significant progress in the overall development of the economy the rural urban disparities continue to be glaring. Still A very large majority of rural population dependent on agriculture and agricultural development is synonymous to rural development. Establishing Krishi Vigyana Kendras (KVK) (Farm Science Centres) is one of the key institutional innovations that sought to facilitate agricultural and rural development. Making the knowledge and other enabling resources in a relevant and readily usable form available to the rural population is the key mandate of KVK. Since the operational domain of KVK is the district where it is located it is in a better position to appreciate the local conditions. There are 580 KVKs in India to look after the rural development in their respective jurisdiction of the districts of each KVK. The KVK at CRIDA has the responsibility of contributing to the agricultural and rural development in Rangareddy District of Andhra Pradesh and is carrying out the works in collaboration with other research organizations in Hyderabad and all line Departments of State Government. This publication is an endeavour to put together information on the relevant technologies that are helpful to farm and household development. 168 pp.

Essays in this festschrift brought out in honour of Professor K.S. Chalam are highly specialized covering the four states of Southern India. These are the analytical essays on the history and socio economic transformation of the marginal communities or disprivileged groups i.e. Dalits tribes and other occupational communities. The essays focus on these social categories and reflect on economic development and the process of social change. Professor Chalam is a trained economist specialized in broader themes like economics of education political economy public economics and Dravidian studies. Perhaps he is one of the few economists who has widely written over four decades on education and the disprivileged an issue that has re emerged and has been intensely debated in recent years. He has pioneered some innovative ideas in his interdisciplinary studies like Education and Weaker Sections two decades ago when there were very few serious works drawing from history economics education sociology and related disciplines. Therefore this volume has been planned in such a way that the essays incorporate all his cherished ideas. 356 pp.
