Social Change and Development in India: Cultural Change

Question:

Which of the following is not part of cultural change?

Options:

Industrialisation

Sanskritisation

Secularisation

Modernisation

Correct Answer:

Industrialisation

Explanation:

Less deliberate yet decisive changes in cultural practices can broadly be understood as the four processes of sanskritisation,modernisation, secularisation and westernisation. Sanskritisation pre-dates the coming of colonial rule. The other three processes can be understood better as complex responses of the people of India to the changes that colonialism brought about.
