Summary

Indian Democracy: Problems and Prospects is the culmination of a UGC sponsored national seminar on ‘The Changing Face of Indian Democracy: Regionalism and Coalition Governments’, organized by the Department of Political Science, Loreto College, Kolkata in September 2006.

The papers presented and published here reflect an attempt to trace and analyse the changing nature of Indian democracy in the last 60 years. The contributions of eminent academicians will no doubt enrich the ongoing discourse on Indian democracy.

I am grateful to all those who presented papers at the seminar and consented to the publication of the same. Appreciation is also due to the faculty and students of the Department of Political Science for making possible this valuable publication. I sincerely hope that this book will contribute towards a deeper understanding of this evolutionary phenomenon in Indian politics.
