    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This volume debates the different ways in which ideas, practices, and traditions of sociology grew, were organized, and institutionalized in India from the mid-nineteenth century till present times. It facilitates, in a small way, an understanding of the histories of the discipline, while critically examining their origin and growth, their impact, and their limitations. The interplay of three themes- time, space, and power-structures the arguments in this book. The
    essays in this collection highlight two separate but connected dominant positions that have structured the formation of sociological traditions in India-colonialism and its practices, and ideologies of nationalism and notions of nation and nationhood.
