Nations such as Hungary, Poland, Slovenia, Czech Republic, Estonia, have numerous achievements to their credit. Further, countries such as Uzbekistan were able to effectively protect many citizens from acute socio-economic distress. A wealth of natural resources in countries such as the Russian Federation, Kazakhstan, and Azerbaijan promises the potential for prosperity. At the same time, the process of transition has been painful for millions of citizens. There has been an unprecedented increase in poverty and mortality in countries, some of which have become, ironically, the most unequal in the world. Further, the countries of the former Soviet Union have suffered sharper reversals than any other region of the world in three indicators of socio-economic distress - mortality, income, and inflation. This report not only documents these adverse developments but also outlines the measures required to address poverty.

Negotiating with Increasing Complexities. Obituaries and Tributes. Obituary: Brij Raj Chauhan/Yogesh Atal. Brij Raj Chauhan: A Personal Tribute/Surendra Munshi. Remembering Professor Brij Raj Chauhan/Jagdish Kumar Pundir. My Guru Chauhan Saheb/Jainendra Kumar Doshi. In the 1950s, when Indian Sociology stepped into the terrain of village studies, Brij Raj Chauhan the founder Professor of Sociology in Rajasthan initiated research in rural Rajasthan. Located close to the capital of the princely state of Mewar and locally governed by Rajput chiefs appointed by the Maharana, the village Ranawaton-ki-Sadri was chosen by B.R. Chauhan for doing the ethnography of a small community using an emerging paradigm for such studies. Indian Village Revisited is a posthumous publication based on B.R. Chauhan s revisit to Ranawaton-ki-Sadri in Udaipur district. The book tries to locate the key differences in the village between 1950s and the first decade of the 21st century. Having studied the same village at two points of time, the author had the advantage of deciphering change. As a field anthropologist, he insisted on observation and informal interviews. Enormous secondary data relative to the village and the region was also collected to locate the microcosmic changes occurring in the village as a consequence of urbanization and modernization, democratic decentralization, and the emerging party politics. Unfortunately, Professor Chauhan passed away soon after the completion of this study. This volume has been edited by one of B.R. Chauhan s students, Yogesh Atal, who has also contributed an essay in his honour. As a tribute to the teacher, and as the first such venture of restudying the village community, this publication is of special significance. The book is written in a descriptive style, as the ethnography of a changing village. (jacket).

Anna s Rally at Jantar Mantar, July August 2012. 14. Ramdev s Fast at Ramlila Maidan, August 2012. Conclusion: Tying the Threads Together. With the exposure of major scams like 2G spectrum, Commonwealth Games and Adarsh, public anger against corruption boiled over as witnessed in the massive protests of 2011 12. Combating Corruption: The Indian Case provides a perspective for viewing the increasing levels of corruption in the higher echelons of politics and bureaucracy in post-Independence India, and the limits of popular struggles and legislative/administrative measures to combat it. Looking at the phenomenon as deviance from norms and a systemic dysfunctionality, the authors argue that it can be resisted by effective strategies of mass mobilisation under charismatic leaders. Focusing on peoples participation, it traces the emergence of anti-corruption movements to the JP Movement of the 1970s, and culminates with the protests led by Anna Hazare and Baba Ramdev and the rise of the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party. The book fills a major lacuna in our sociological understanding of corruption as exemplified by cases of grand embezzlement and the popular opposition to it. Identifying the traditional sources of corruption, the authors show how the problem manifests itself in the social, economic and political contexts peculiar to India. And in doing so, they underline the crucial role of state institutions and a vigilant civil society in tackling a problem that afflicts almost all, and not only the developing, societies. As instant history , Combating Corruption is an account of an unprecedented phase of mass protests in India. A must-read for political analysts, sociologists, journalists and general readers alike, it is indispensable for understanding contemporary India.
