Sommario/riassunto: | From Individual to Community brings together a set of papers that provides critical commentaries on various facets of the ongoing process of development. The book addresses issues that concern developing countries-such as globalization, economic growth, rural transformation, gender equality, educational reforms and the Dalit movement-from a multidisciplinary perspective. Based on the theoretical framework of the normative principles, the book evaluates issues that are specifically relevant in the Indian context-rich versus poor, globalization versus sustainable development, and so on.
