HB 24x16 cm. 295.00 ₹ 295.00 In this powerful and insightful critique, the author examines the evolution of the Indian middle class during the twentieth century, especially since Independence. He shows us how the middle class, guided by self-interest, is becoming increasingly insensitive to the plight of the underprivileged, and how economic liberalization has only heightened its tendency to withdraw from anything that does not relate directly to its material well-being. An essential read, this fresh edition updated with a new introduction analyses the transformation of the middle class in the decade since 1997 and seeks to reconcile the seemingly dichotomous aspects of our economy and polity. https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=sites&srcid=ZGVmYXVsdGRvbWFpbnxrZWpvamFyb25wcTk2MHxneDo3ZGM4MmFiM2FhZTViZTE3 Social Groups 2072 Middle Class Political Activity 2073 Social Movements 2074 VARMA (Pavan K) 2075 ddc GF 216765 216765 0 0 ddc 0 0 SOC AL AL 2013-03-24 0 305.55 VARG GF00723 2021-10-28 00:00:00 https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=sites&srcid=ZGVmYXVsdGRvbWFpbnxrZWpvamFyb25wcTk2MHxneDo3ZGM4MmFiM2FhZTViZTE3 2021-10-28 GF
