Re: indian institute of social science shimla
The areas of investigation in Indian Institute of Advanced Study (IIAS) are such as would promote interdisciplinary research. The areas have deep human significance. The main research areas are those in which scholars of renown can be attracted in the initial stages, both for the purposes of developing the methodological framework for interdisciplinary research and for ensuring an acceptable quality in output that will encourage extension of such efforts to more areas in. Each of these projects is for a specified period and under no circumstances, the period of such projects should be extended. At the end of each of the projects, there is a publication, setting out the results. Research Areas • Social, political and economic philosophy • Comparative Indian (including ancient, medieval, modern folk and tribal) • Comparative studies in philosophy and religion • Development of world-views • Education, culture, arts including performing arts and craft • Fundamental concepts and problems of logic and mathematics • Fundamental concepts and problems of natural and life sciences • Studies in environment, natural and social • Indian civilization in the context of Asian neighbours • Problems of contemporary India in the context of national integration and nation-building.
