In the time of agrarian crisis and movement, Remembering India’s
Villages centralises the rural India—examining its stubborn past
and dynamic present. Departing from the myth of little republics,
it sees villages in cinema, development discourses, and debates
among the founders of modern India like Gandhi, Nehru, Tagore and
Ambedkar. Empirical research, multidisciplinary perspective, and
cross-cultural insights are useful aids in this book toward
understanding the reality of the rural that comprises structural
anomalies and social possibilities. The book remembers India’s
villages under the trope of reconstitution rather than
disappearance. The book adds to the renewed interest in village
studies, rural sociology, development studies, and intellectual
history. This book is co-published with Aakar Books. Print edition
not for sale in South Asia (India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh,
Pakistan and Bhutan)
