Rövid leírás:
These essays reflect the works of the authors over a period of 50 years since their first visit to India in 1956. They re-emphasize the importance of area studies challenging American parochialism in the social sciences. They challenge the use of statistics to identify universal patterns that underlie economic and political systems. 9/11 reinforced the authors' methods and modes of inquiry. It challenged America's parochialism. It reminded America that it was a part
of a diverse world and that they did not have the means to grasp its complexities.
Hosszú leírás:
This volume is the first of the three volumes that collect the Rudolphs' life works over a period of fifty years since their first visit to India in 1956. Volume I comprises two parts: Modes of Inquiry and Theorizing Politics and Society. The seven essays in the first section, Modes of Inquiry, reflect the changing methods of inquiry the authors have used over a period of time. The eight essays in the second section, Theorizing Politics and Society, were written over
a period of 40 years, from 1961 to 2001. They explore the relationship between theory and empirical research in political science by focusing on areas like political culture, social change, and social structure.
This three volume compendium brings together a cross-section of selections from the works published by Lloyd and Susaane Rudolph over a period of approximately fifty years. Consistently reiterating the limits of universal categories as encoutnered through their research, the repository of scholarship produced individually and together by this most erudite duo, who must surely count amongst the most self-reflexive western scholars writing on Indian politics today, would be hard to
surpass.
