Social Exclusion, Inequality and Protest (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

In India, traditional social collectivities like caste, tribe, gender, and religion continue to form the base of social exclusion, marginalisation and inequality to a large extent, despite operation of the mighty forces of modernisation and globalisation. This book presents an interdisciplinary critical analysis of social exclusion and inequality under contemporary globalisation with a focus on the condition of major historically marginalised communities in India.

The book discusses different aspects of identity-based social inequality and the exclusion of marginalised sections, including the current market-driven process of exclusion in India. Moreover, it covers socio-political aspects of social exclusion, including anti-globalisation social movements in the country.

Topical and interdisciplinary, this book will be of interest to scholars and researchers of sociology, political science, political sociology, social anthropology, tribal studies, Indian politics, cultural studies, community health, and development studies.
