Sociology and Anthropology are core disciplines in the human sciences. Co-terminus with the establishment of the modern era from the 18th century onwards, these disciplines offer classical foundations, theories and methodologies for understanding society and its constitutive elements. Sociology and Anthropology have evolved in a complementary manner, sharing a deeply reciprocal relationship, and more so in the Indian context. If liberal arts, comprehensively understood, provides a grounded and holistic view into the dynamics and nuances of social life then sociology and anthropology are the primary vehicles through which this journey takes concrete shape and form. As a matter of fact, no liberal arts programme can be complete without including a rich offering of courses in both these disciplines.
