Contemporary Anthropology D. C. Nanjunda

An imperative apprehension of students of Indian society and culture is the understanding of role of Anthropology in understanding tradition, unity, integrity, stability, resilience, vulnerability and capacity for change. Anthropologists address this dilemma in a fastidious way through the examination of the present as well as the past. Understanding the past in the present is a key predicament for Anthropologists the world over, whether of a conservative or a radical persuasion, but the problem is particularly undeniable in India because of the prosperity and strength of its tradition and its continued strength in existing life. This book will be highly useful to the young Anthropologists, Policy makers, NGOs and general public.
