This workshop is a follow up of the programmes and workshops organized by the Department earlier, for launching the project and to discuss the methodological and theoretical issues involved in it. On the basis of such activities, the Department has prepared a list of themes to be worked out and a team of project participants is constituted. The teams have initiated the project work and have conducted preliminary surveys and fieldwork.
The present workshop is intended to review the work already done and to discuss about the future course of action to be followed. It is aimed at providing theoretical and methodological clarity on micro-historical research and to equip the project participants with necessary skills to proceed on with the task confidently.
We cordially invite you to be with us on the occasion and to take part in the whole deliberations of the programme.
