This volume presents an interdisciplinary framework to map out contemporary educational studies in India. Based on conceptual tools, quantitative methods and ethnographic accounts drawn from extensive fieldwork, it addresses emerging discourses on educational policies, their operation in the everyday functioning of institutions and actual practices in teaching and learning. Individual chapters discuss the intersectionality in the current educational system of region, gender, class, caste and minorities. With comparative perspectives and case studies from across states, including under-studied rural and urban regions of India, the book explores a wide range of issues affecting the educational system, including socioeconomic and gender inequalities; the educational status of tribal settlements in the hinterlands and their respective urban areas; the marginalisation of minorities; challenges in accessing educational avenues and choices; and the model for imparting vocational education and training. It navigates complex sites of discrimination and exclusion in the institutional spaces of the educational system and assesses the consequences of market dynamics and ideological undercurrents. Presenting first-hand information from the field, it evaluates educational policies, practices and research; investigates challenges and failures; provides suggestions and fosters critical thinking for a knowledge society. The findings in this book will be of interest to researchers, scholars and teachers of education, economics, sociology, urban education and the politics of education, as well as of public policy, governance and development studies. It will also be useful to research institutions, policymakers, educationists, social scientists, education professionals, and governmental and non-governmental bodies working on education.

In a tightly woven narrative, historian of modern India Amiya P. Sen traces the shifting self-understanding of Hindus in the light of the many challenges posed by the British colonial encounter, offering an accessible yet analytically rich book on the birth and development of modern Hinduism, which will be of interest to students and the interested general reader alike. Change has been endemic to Hindu cultural life from its inception. It was nevertheless in the modern era, with the advent of British colonial rule in India, that this change had its most far-reaching consequences, profoundly shaping the landscape of Hinduism as we encounter it today. In Colonial Hinduism: An Introduction, Amiya P. Sen charts this many-layered historical process in a refreshingly accessible narrative. Over seven chapters, this book traces the shifting self-understanding of the Hindus in the light of new challenges posed by the West. This encounter brought forth a new Hindu consciousness that was prepared to critique India’s perceived past irrationalities and superstitions but also reject what it took to be the excesses of the materialistic West. Over the years, a surging Hindu nationalism and anti-colonial sentiment sought to counter the material advances of the West with the self-acclaimed spiritual excellence of India in order to to secure for India a rightful place within global civilisation. In time, however, Hindu nationalism produced its own excesses, the ramifications of which India is still contending. Colonial Hinduism: An Introduction fulfils the long standing need for an accessible yet analytically rich book on the birth and development of modern Hinduism, which will be of interest to students and the interested general reader alike. OXFORD CENTRE SERIES: Colonial Hinduism: An Introduction is part of The Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies Mandala Publishing Series. This book joins other accessible texts on Hindu Studies authored by expert scholars, including The Bhagavad Gita: A New Translation and Study Guide; The Hindu Temple and Its Sacred Landscape; and Women in the Hindu World. EXPERT AUTHOR: Amiya P. Sen, PhD, is a historian with an interest in the intellectual and cultural history of modern India. Sen has been Agatha Harrison Fellow at the University of Oxford, Shivdasani Fellow at the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies, Heinrich Zimmer Chair at the University of Heidelberg, and Fellow at the Indian Institute of Advanced Study, Shimla, and the Nehru Memorial Museum & Library, New Delhi, He has served the Universities of Delhi, Visva Bharati, Santiniketan, and Jamia Millia Islamia, New Delhi. EDUCATION AID: With the integration of discussion questions, suggested further reading, glossary of terms, and images throughout, this book serves as a comprehensive resource for both classwork and independent study of modern Hinduism.

Questioning dominant tropes and assumptions around the Northeast, it examines socio-political and historical processes, border issues, the role of the state, displacement and development, debates over natural resources, violence, notions of body and belonging, movements, tensions and relations, and strategies, struggles and narratives that frame discussions on the region. Drawing on current and emerging research in Northeast India studies, this work will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of politics, human geography, sociology and social anthropology, history, cultural studies, media studies and South Asian studies.
