This book takes a sociological and ethnographic approach to examine the introduction and practice of child-centred education reforms in India. Drawing on research in rural primary schools in Karnataka, it analyses how child-centred pedagogies—shaped by international and national educational policies—are implemented and negotiated in practice, and how they relate to broader development goals, democratic schooling, and social inequality.
