Q. 1. Describe with suitable examples the emergance and growth of sociology as a discipline in India.

Ans. Sociology in India also had to deal with Western writings and ideas about Indian society that were not always correct. These ideas were expressed both in the accounts of Colonial officials as well Western scholars. For many of them Indian society was a contrast to Western society. We take just one example here, the way the Indian village was understood and portrayed as unchanging. In keeping with contemporary Victorian evolutionary ideas, Western writers saw in the Indian village a remnant or survival from what was called “the infancy of society”. They saw in 19th century India the past of the European Society.
