Explorations in Anthropology: P.K. Bhowmick and His Collaborative Research Works’ provides an accessible and comprehensive introduction to the vast subject matter of Social Anthropology. This book is not merely a collection of several articles but also an exploration of diverse discourses arising in socio-political, economic, cultural, religious and administrative disciplines that constitute the defining characteristics of today’s social ethos. Scholars with their adequate skilled knowledge and scientific bent of mind have tried to explore the real truth of anthropological science dealing with the problems related to ‘man, society and culture,’ which are unique, versatile and are of lasting relevance in the cultural history of contemporary society. Thus this book provides a wide variety of reflections on the existing society-from the indigenous tribal groups to the contemporary problems of modern times. Distinguished scholars belonging to various branches of social science have selected their problems in accord with their professional subjects. Various articles with trend-setting features have embodied clear visions of their research projects and tried to explore what Anthropology can do. The editors of this book adopt a novel approach by analyzing social problems and dealing with social themes studied by different scholars under Prof. P.K. Bhowmick, an Original Anthropologist making research endeavours throughout the second-half of the twentieth century. Finally, this book has been designed to focus on the manifold challenges faced by the scholars in their works. All the articles complied here attest to the authentic field-based enquires of these scholars in their academic pursuits.
