DOWNLOAD EBOOKIndian society is often described as one with ‘unity in diversity’ and as a composite culture. Since independence, India has also been termed ‘democratic’ and ‘secular’. However, the discernible cracks that have appeared in recent years in these conceptualisations have led to contentious debates about the very nature of Indian society. Focusing on different facets of this exacerbating crisis, this book analyses the various issues confronting India’s society and polity today which can assume crisis proportions if not tackled judiciously and expeditiously.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDescription: Indian Society is a composite society. Indian culture is a composite culture. The structure of Indian society includes Hindu, Muslim, Christian and tribal social institutions. The present study of Indian society is structural-functional. Its analysis of the Indian social institutions is holistic. It clarifies the theoretical model of each social institution alongwith its factual contents. Its approach is anthropological as well as sociological. It is the result of decades of participant observation, deep philosophical insight and subtle sociological analysis, a rare combination possible only by an author having long experience of writing both in philosophy and sociology. Thus it is a valuable interdisciplinary work, bound to evoke reflection among serious students of Indian culture, religion, philosophy, anthropology and sociology.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn The Foundations of the Composite Culture in India, the focus of the author is the process of establishment of Hindu-Muslim unity as a result of historical, social and cultural factors over a period of ten centuries. Traversing this era, he reveals how the Muslim rulers contributed to such harmony and how the two cultures exchanged and accepted each other's tenets to enrich and formulate a composite Indian culture. To explore the foundations on which the complex culture of India rests, the author examines the contribution of Sufism which inherently connotes syncretism and tolerance, as well as the simultaneous rise of the Bhakti movement in medieval India.
