Under the leadership of its illustrious founding editor, Sachin Chaudhuri, the journal soon became a major platform for 15 the finest minds of the time, providing a diverse range of scholarship and space for differing, often conflicting, ideological positions. reading India: selections from the economic weekly: volume 1: 194-1965 brings together landmark studies in sociology, politics and economics that capture the major analytical and policy debates published in the journal from 1949“65. The articles span a wide range of studies, exploring diverse topics, from the classic anthropological village studies, the issue of caste and religious identity, to economic policy debates on growth and investment, and agricultural and industrial policies.
