Summary: Theory and Practice of Ethnography” is an anthology of research papers contributed by illustrious scholars both from India and abroad. It accentuates theoretical and empirical layout of the Ethnography, Language, Literature, Culture, Rethinking History and Social Development. Ethnography is highly entertained in the search of the concept of the “other, ” which is also elaborately discussed in the book. Its main emphasis is on the deprivation— economic, social, cultural and linguistic— among the marginalized groups of Indian society, such as women, tribals, and the downtrodden. Ethnography is both a process and a product; in this direction, the entire exercise in this volume focuses on applying the different methodological tools of ethnography. We hope that students, researchers, teachers and policy makers working in the areas of anthropology, culture studies, sociology, public policy, history, literature, applied linguistics, folklore, development studies and general readers of social history will find this volume quite interesting and useful.
