The process of understanding development has its roots in the
gathered wisdom and training of the elaborator/researcher.
Basically the concept has manifold dimensions. Social Scientists
have broadly come to terms with the concept of development
flavoured with these make-believe borders of disciplines. This is
likely to grow worse, if the interdisciplinary underpinnings are
not kept in view. This volume makes an attempt to address some of
the concerns confronted in literature by providing a partial peep
through a few windows to observe development and these are studied
by acclaimed social scientists from various disciplinary
backgrounds. These windows are opened with a purpose and from an
angle, keeping in view the widespread academic interests and
research areas frequented by Prof. V.M. Rao, through his writings.
Five areas are chosen here: aggregate economic development,
agricultural development, irrigation development, poverty and
issues of governance. The authors in unison argue for the necessity
of a holistic understanding of an economy, society and further need
for development of indigeneous way of thinking. It touches upon
promising themes of development both at micro as well as
macro-level to legitimise the well-deserved places for the issues
among the imminent problems. Each of these windows gives us
glimpses of different facets of development from the vantage point
of the author as also a view from diverse angles, at the world of
development. Though fragmented, one gets a picture of the seemingly
continuum of development. The intention of this volume is to create
an excellent collage of these views through different windows.
