Symbolic forms like aural sounds, oral expressions, signs and languages are communicative sources that help social scientists understand social phenomena and enable them to postulate the concepts and methodologies of social sciences. Communication of this kind is the organic basis of disciplines of social anthropology and sociology even as a theory of the society in which communication is spatially situated is essential to evolve an adequate theory of communication. This volume explores the interface between communication, sociology and anthropology, examining the advances made in these disciplines by referring to advancements made in Western social sciences. It presents an overview of the theoretical and cultural dimensions of the forms and processes of communication in India. In this context, it covers traditional forms of communication and their interface with theory by referring to folk culture and the construction of the notion of community in communication researches. The comprehensive volume with articles by experts highlights the forms of communication and its effects on institutions related to the social and cultural domains such as language and identity and national political mobilisation. It examines the interface of the communication processes with culture and its implications for social change by delving into aspects of popular culture and the challenges of globalisation. The scholarly essays deal with sociological and anthropological issues of contemporary significance including tribal social structure and formation, debates on the concepts of tribe and caste, the sociology of professions and entrepreneurship as emergent facets of sub-structures and sub-cultures in India in the process of social change, and the changing interface between religion and culture. The essays also cover Dalit consciousness and sociology of gender.
