This book presents a comprehensive summary of research papers published in leading professional journals from India and abroad, as well as unpublished papers presented at international seminars and workshops between 1980 and 2010. All papers included have been thoroughly updated to reflect the latest facts and figures, and have been reorganized into a thematically coherent format for clarity and relevance. The volume represents a fresh and thoughtful attempt to bridge the gap between demographic processes and family structure within the Indian context.One of the key objectives of this study is to highlight the evolving nature of family patterns and marital practices in India. By doing so, it sets the stage for a much-needed dialogue between the disciplines of anthropology, sociology, and demography. The book emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary approaches to understand the changing dynamics of Indian families.This work is particularly significant given the rapid social, cultural, and economic transformations affecting family life across different regions of India. The authors aim to provide insights that are not only academically enriching but also practically useful for understanding current trends and challenges.This book will serve as a valuable resource for scholars, students, and professionals working in the field of social sciences, as well as for lay readers with an interest in contemporary family issues in India.
