The chapter delves into the foundational figures of Indian sociology, notably G.S. Ghurye, D.P. Mukerji, A.R. Desai, and M.N. Srinivas, each of whom contributed uniquely to the discipline within the context of India's colonial and post-colonial conditions. These pioneers navigated the challenges of adapting Western sociological traditions to India's distinct cultural and social realities, paving the way for sociology to evolve as a relevant academic field in India. The discussions also address the complexities surrounding caste, tribal communities, and the notion of tradition in the face of modernization.
