It draws on deep ethnographic engagement with the people and social life in two villages both during elections and in the time in between them, to show how these two temporalities connect. The analysis shows how an agrarian village society produces the social imaginaries required for democratic and republican values. The ethnographic microscope on a single paddy growing setting allows us to examine how the various social institutions of kinship, economy and religion are critical sites for the continual civic cultivation of cooperation, vigilance, redistribution, inviolate commitment and hope - values that are essential for democracy"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Social participation $z India $v Case studies. 651 0 $a India $x Rural conditions. 650 0 $a Agriculture $x Economic aspects $z India. 651 0 $a India $x Social life and customs. 650 0 $a Democracy $z India. 650 7 $a Agriculture $x Economic aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00801415 650 7 $a Democracy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00890077 650 7 $a Manners and customs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007815 650 7 $a Rural conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01101474 650 7 $a Social participation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122699 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 655 7 $a Case studies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423765 830 0 $a Modern South Asia series. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231021025228.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=857BEA128FC011ECBA4AA6A62FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
