India has been experiencing chequered results of democratic decentralization process initiated more than a decade ago. The new dispensation of devolution of power and funds in a relatively more transparent manner following the 73rd CA Act, 1992 has brought about a change in the rural leadership pattern as well as in the process of village empowerment. The new politico-administrative era has led to the emergence of local leadership in the country with a new vigor. Assam is not an exception to that new revolution of grassroots governance, where the experiment of Panchayati Raj system had been a gross failure in the past. But the new dispensation has added a new lease of life to the PRIs in Assam and added a newer dimension in representation. At the academic level, PRIs, generally do not attract much scholars and academics in the state to a desired extent. Here, in the present book “Social Base of Grassroots Politics in Assam†, an attempt has been made to fill up this vacuum of our knowledge regarding the sociological appraisal of grassroots politics in the Indian state of Assam. The author has grouped some very pertinent issues through an inquiry of social background features of the representatives of Panchayats of a specific universe based in Assam for a broader understanding and generalization of grassroots governance. The quality of representativeness of any political organ in a democracy is the very basis and essence of democratic governance and it is also important to look as to how our plural society finds representations in the political apparatuses, be it in the top or in the bottom. Here lies the significance of studying the grassroots governance, which is now, becomes a part of the constitution itself. The book deals with intensively the PRIs of Assam with a special reference to the district of Kamrup from a sociological perspective. It is probably the first attempt of this kind, which is interdisciplinary in its approach, and it obviously addresses to a large audience even beyond the social science disciplines. Our administrators, policy-makers, planners, political activists, students, scholars and general readers interested in the study of grassroots governance and democratic decentralization as such will find Dr. Jogendra Kr. Das’s book useful and stimulating.

The collected essays in this book provide a comparative examination of the process of grassroots mobilization and the development of community-based forms of popular democracy in Central and South America. The first part contains studies from individual countries on organizations ranging from those supported by governments and integrated into the country's political structure to groups that were organized against the existing political system. The organizations studied included those focusing on a particular concern, such as housing, and those with wide responsibility for community affairs; but all were organizations based on common interests where people lived and, in some cases, where people worked. The second part offers theme studies on men, women and differential participation; problems and meanings associated with decentralization, especially in relation to devolution of power to the local level and the construction of popular alternatives; and the competing theoretical paradigms of new social movements and resource mobilization.

Nearly all countries worldwide are now experimenting with decentralization. Their motivation are diverse. Many countries are decentralizing because they believe this can help stimulate economic growth or reduce rural poverty, goals central government interventions have failed to achieve. Some countries see it as a way to strengthen civil society and deepen democracy. Some perceive it as a way to off-load expensive responsibilities onto lower level governments. Thus, decentralization is seen as a solution to many different kinds of problems. This report examines the origins and implications decentralization from a political economy perspective, with a focus on its promise and limitations. It explores why countries have often chosen not to decentralize, even when evidence suggests that doing so would be in the interests of the government. It seeks to explain why since the early 1980s many countries have undertaken some form of decentralization. This report also evaluates the evidence to understand where decentralization has considerable promise and where it does not. It identifies conditions needed for decentralization to succeed. It identifies the ways in which decentralization can promote rural development. And it names the goals which decentralization will probably not help achieve.

This book examines the causes and consequences of marginalization of social groups and the state of democratic decentralization in India in the unfolding context of globalization and changing perspectives of development models and institutions. The first of its kind, it correlates macro-and micro-level issues to understand social exclusion and inclusion and the level of participation of democratic institutions at the grassroots level since economic liberalization (1991) and the 73rd Constitution Amendment Act of 1992, marking three decades since granting constitutional status to the Panchayati Raj Institutions. The study looks at the linkages between certain key themes: the neoliberal model of development, growth, and distributive justice; the role and mandate of grassroots-level public institutions enshrined in the Constitution, inclusive growth, and the Indian State; the role of political executives from marginalized communities; factors involved in people’s active participation in the development process; and challenges in current political structures, inclusion of marginalized communities in governance and development, and real empowerment of local bodies and institutions. The book argues that legislative enactments, constitutional status, reservation of seats to marginalized communities, and so on can only empower local bodies and their leadership symbolically. The success of these provisions depends on the overall development model of the country; the support of national and state governments; the socio-economic and political environment of the institutions; and effective service and accountability. Topical and rich in empirical data, including case studies, this book will be an essential read for scholars and researchers of political science, development studies, governance, public administration, sociology, public policy, and also for government agencies, administrators and bureaucrats, policymakers, international organizations, think tanks, and NGOs working in the area.
