A textbook in Rural Sociology can follow many approaches. It may describe or analyse rural people and rural society in a particular country or culture; it may focus on one aspect of rural life and study analytically; it may deal with the rural situation in terms of specific social problems; or it may study rural society from some other point of view. This book is introductory and foundational in its approach. Its purpose is to introduce students who have been hitherto exposed almost exclusively to the natural and biological sciences, to the social sciences and specifically to Rural Sociology. It is addressed particularly to under-graduates and graduates of agriculture and related fields in India and similar developing countries of the world who intend to work directly or indirectly with rural people for their development and consequently seek to gain insight and understanding of their behaviour. Such understanding is not possible without comprehension of what goes to make up the structure of rural life and its operation and of the development of a framework which serves to analyse rural life. As an introductory textbook in Rural Sociology, this writing attempts to present students with basic concepts and principles of Rural Sociology that serve as a foundation for understanding the behaviour of rural people. These concepts and principles represent a connected set of facts and axioms in reference to which the student may organise and orient his thinking, define situations and communicate his thoughts and attitudes in respect of rural people. In doing, so he would develop a frame of reference for Rural Sociology.
