Indian anthropologists, however, in the early de­cades after the independence made inspiring and solid research contri­butions on the major problems encountered by the new nation, which has been described and analyzed in detail in this book. These problems include rehabilitation of refugees after the 1947 Partition; and displacement of people from their homes and land caused by the big dams, industrialization and famines. This book, result of years of painstaking research by the author, critically reviews the existing works and their gaps in the history of Indian anthropology and makes a new and valuable addition in the field of the history of academic disciplines in the context of nation building. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manohar Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47869716463767,"sku":"9789391928735","price":735.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9789391928735.webp?v=1780740496","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/nation-building-in-indian-anthropology-9789391928735","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
