About the Book

The Great Indian Middle Class by Pavan K. Varma presents a sharp and insightful critique of India’s post-independence middle class, examining its rise, aspirations, contradictions, and influence on the nation’s social and political landscape. The author analyzes how economic growth, globalization, and changing cultural values have shaped the attitudes and priorities of this influential social group.

Through historical context and contemporary observation, Varma explores issues such as consumerism, civic responsibility, nationalism, and social inequality. Written in an engaging and analytical style, the book encourages readers to reflect on the role of the middle class in shaping modern India’s identity and democratic culture.

Ideal for students, researchers, and readers interested in sociology, politics, and contemporary Indian society, this work remains a thought-provoking commentary on social change in India.
