Summary: Land is evidently the most critical cause of poverty and violence in contemporary India. The Social Development Report (SDR) 2010, with a special focus on the land question, captures trends in the usual human development indicators, such as, literacy, life expectancy, and per capita income. It also studies differentiated socio-economic and political indicators for marginalized groupsDalits, Adivasis, unorganized labour, religious minoritiesand women and children among them. This report is a collection of empirical studies showing the record of social development in India. It strongly posits that development has to be a comprehensive process of change benefiting not only the recognized, but also the marginalized. (http://www.oup.co.in/search_detail.php?id=145706)
