Social Geography of India presents aspects of the spatial organisation of Indian Society in its ethnic, tribal, caste, linguistic and religious dimensions. The book makes the point that these elements define the parameters of socio-cultural diversity of the people of India, and are of a composite identity, inter-twined and inseparable from each other.
The book offers detailed analysis on a wide range of social issues such as the Indian context of social geography, origins of social differentiation and region formation, tribal formation and communities of speech and faith. |
