The book documents and theorizes the transformations that have redefined the discipline, arguing that the once-dominant nationalist vision of education in independent India is being reshaped by two major forces: radical local social movements and the global pressures of capitalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaitrayee Chaudhuri emphasizes that sociology in India must engage with both the routine, everyday practices of the discipline and its unique theoretical possibilities, allowing it to actively contribute to broader debates on the role of social sciences.
