The interaction between tradition and development offers a vast field for study. Tradition may retard development or it may promote it. In some cases traditional itself may be neutral. To discuss the interplay between tradition and development in the context of Indian social scent, ‘Tradition and Development’ was chosen as a theme for the Seminar organised by A.N. Sinha Institute of Social Studies, Patna, as a part of its silver Jubilee Celebrations in 1985. A large number of scholars from different parts of India took part in the deliberation and presented papers. This volume contains the papers presented by the participants in the Seminar. The papers deal with the changes in the Villages consequent to community development and Panchayati Raj programmes, tradition and development in the context of tribal societies, socio economic conditions of Scheduled Castes, women and children. Subjects like colonial legacy and higher education, exploitation of migration labour, changes in communication media, etc., have also been discussed. The volume should prove interesting and useful not only to scholars in the realms of sociology and anthropology but also to all who are actively engaged in the all round development of the country.
