Synopsis

This analysis of the emergence of a new entrepreneurial class in the Punjab explores the dynamic relationship between traditional society and modern industrial culture in the developing world. Professor Weiss goes beyond standard development theories to incorporate the often-neglected internal variable of culture. She analyzes the impact of cultural factors such as kinship obligations, orientations towards work and labour, and religious values on the activities of the Punjabi entrepreneurs and their experiences with industrial growth and socio-economic change. The study, anchored in primary research on three types of key emerging industries (import substitution, basic manufacturing, and export-oriented manufacturing), provides an assessment of class formation and economic development in a post-colonial state.
