Dhanagare:The Sociologist Who Dissected ‘Development’

Traveling in a red bus with his M.A. students Dhanagare narrated his career trajectory in a simple and straightforward manner in the late 1980s. We were a bunch of students of ‘Agrarian Structure of Change’ doing M.A. sociology at the then University of Poona. A passionate teacher and a committed researcher-he always gave the first priority to his writing and his students.
