Social development in Kerala

"There has been considerable academic interest in the innovative development programme taking place in Kerala, India. Much has been published on the specific 'achievements' of the programme, such as literacy, health care, communication and demographic indicators. However, lurking beneath the surface are the harsh realities of chronic unemployment, poverty and deprivation among the elderly and weaker sections of the society, the oppression of women and the inefficiency of the Government. These problems are revealed in this book through in-depth empirical research undertaken by a native Keralan. In light of this new material, this book questions whether the Kerala model of development should indeed be regarded as worth emulation."--Jacket.
