The book examines the Urban Social Structure of the most cosmopolitan city of North-East India, i.e. Shillong. It was found to be a multi-ethnic social set-up, though it was also known as a tribal city. Keeping the ethnic complexity in view, this study examines the urban social structure, pattern of group behaviour, nature of its modernity and the impact of urban development. This book will prove to be a leading work in the field to urban sociology and valuable asset in sociological research. The study is significant as it identifies areas for further research as well. It will be useful for students and scholars engaged in interdisciplinary studies a well as for policy planners in the field.
