Social Policy & Administration: The Challenge of Poverty & Equality

The present publication focuses on the structure and systems in place for the administration of social welfare programmes for the deprived and neglected sections of the society. It provides a comprehensive overview of the entire range of underprivileged and marginal communities, including tribes, minorities, backward classes, poor people and child labour etc. The book will undoubtedly prove to be valuable basic material not only for the students and teachers of sociology but also to the academic research scholars, sociologists, social workers and policy-makers.
