Abstract
The social structures undergo significant changes and reform, as a result of which the patterns of social establishments, social groups, agency capabilities, conceptions, prioritizations etc. are meaningfully changed. When the concept of social change is applied to more specific instances, say nation that may not be identical in its pattern and structure of transformation. For example developing countries like India. India, like other developing countries, is unique in its social relations with features of multiple beliefs, customs religions, castes, languages etc. India’s social condition consists of traits of tradition as well as modernity. It bears the traces of colonialism as well.
Keywords: Social change, Economic change, Social-economic modernity, Kuttanad.
