About the Book
 
Development Process and Social Movements in Contemporary India offers a detailed policy analysis of the insights into the discourses of development in India since independence, and suggests the areas where the high growth story of India has to translate into development gains for hitherto policy excluded social classes. This compendium seeks to explain that the terms of growth gains have not been equal and even for all regions, sectors and social classes in India. As a result, excluded social classes have been raising their voice for their development entitlements through social and political movements.
This volume enables teachers, research scholars and students to understand the imperatives and determinants which must haveshaped the policy contents that unfolded over last seven decades now.  It is quite a substantive compendium on discourses and praxis of development, democracy, new- movements, post-civil society and citizenship. This book is first of its kind and very useful for students and researchers in Political Science, Economics and Sociology. This book is full of informations for students preparing for competitive examinations as well.
