Description:Political Economy of Production and Reproduction presents a nuanced understanding of social flux and cultural turmoil in contemporary north India. It critically examines the complex relationship of the colonial past with the present; the shifts in the political economy and culture of north India; and the constant reformulation and refashioning of patriarchal forces.

She offers a rich assessment of colonial legacy in the region, and how and why post-colonial changes in India--which established political democracy and norms of social equality--stand severely diluted and compromised indicating high economic and low social indices. Mapping significant social process and state policies that have shaped and reshaped north India, Political Economy of Production and Reproduction provides an insight into one of the richest regions in India and why it continues to be regressive even in the twenty-first century--ruled by social forces determined by caste, custom, and community, instead of moving towards a modern egalitarian society and statehood.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
