Social Action

(A Quarterly Review of Social Trends)
Social Action has been published continuously since 1951 by the Indian Social Institute. This Journal has been capturing the social dimension of independent India. It is now published by the Social Action Trust. The Journal attempts to reach activists in the field with committed intellectual and theoretical concerns, as well as intellectuals and academics seriously committed to action in the field. This is a delicate balance to maintain and the editorial team strives to keep the Journal relevant and informative to both sets of readers.
