First published in 1937, India's Social Heritage is intended to
give a simple statement of the principal features of the social
system in pre-independence India. The social system of
pre-Independence India retained many features characteristic of an
early stage of social growth. Society was still largely communal in
the sense that it was organized in groups. Individual life was
based on collective standards and had to be in harmony as a unit in
a group, to whose interests his own were subordinate. The social
system may be described as a synthesis of groups rather than
persons, while the joint family was the basis of Hindu law. This
book will be of interest to students of history, sociology and
South Asian studies.
