Inhaltsangabe

The struggling states of Bihar and Mithila serve as extreme examples of India's problems. Development here has been thwarted by a hereditary landed aristocracy supported by religion, casteism, custom, social stratification, tradition, and patterns of behaviour that can be traced back millennia. In turn, all these have been masterfully manipulated by co-opted politicians, who have turned politics into a veritable art form as this volume comprehensively demonstrates. Please note: Taylor & Francis does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka
