While this area of study has gained significant recognition globally, it has remained relatively underexplored among Indian scholars. This book aims to fill that gap by introducing students and researchers to the concepts, scope, and evolving methodologies of electoral geography, with a special focus on the Indian context.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book provides an in-depth discussion of the meaning and evolution of electoral geography and offers a concise survey of scholarly approaches and research methods, including the \u003cem\u003eareal-ecological approach\u003c\/em\u003e for analyzing voting behavior and political trends. Using a detailed case study of North East Rajasthan, the book examines the socio-economic determinants of voting patterns during the Lok Sabha elections of 1991 and 1998, as well as the Assembly elections of 1993 and 1998.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough spatial analyses, the author highlights patterns of electoral support for the Indian National Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party, revealing the socio-economic bases that influence each party's voter alignment. This combination of theoretical insight and practical application makes the book particularly valuable for students and scholars of political geography, electoral studies, and Indian politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith clear explanations, analytical depth, and a focus on India’s federal polity, this book opens new avenues for research in electoral geography and serves as an essential reference for geographers, political scientists, and policymakers interested in the dynamics of voting behavior.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rawat Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50025882124592,"sku":"DRG.RawatPublications_9788131607176","price":712.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/61B0GTLee9L.jpg?v=1756392903","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/electoral-geography","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
