This course will describe the general political frameworks that secure peace and justice in India and analyze the impact of the different social movements on Indian political decision-making.

Specific cases will include: pluralism and the rise of cultural nationalisms, the role of NGO's and empowerment innovations, the campaign against child labor, trade union movements, and Dalits, tribals and women's movements.
