Documenting the interface between the citizens of a democratic nation and the multicultural society which they inhabit, Citizen and Society is a collection of lectures delivered by the Vice President of India, Shri M. Hamid Ansari. Featuring an eclectic mix of topics—which range from the role of women to the significance of dissent, literature and art, the challenges in Indian agriculture to science and technology—Citizen and Society tackles issues with sensitivity and understanding. The ideas and opinions discussed here will interest policymakers or any reader who is interested in the state and its affairs alike.
