Brief History |
|
|
|
Indian
Anthropological Association is the representative body of the
professional anthropologists in India. The idea to form this
association was conceived way back in 1964 at Dalhousie,
Himachal Pradesh when All India Summer School was organized by
the Department of Anthropology, University of Delhi by the then
Head Late Prof. P. C. Biswas. Participants contributed
enthusiastically to the general fund of the Association from the
money, which they had received as traveling allowance to attend the
Summer School. The association continued in an informal manner
till 1969 when it was registered under the Societies
Registration Act with Department of Anthropology, University of
Delhi as its National Headquarter.
The Indian
Anthropological Association has never looked back in its journey
for the pursuit and dissemination of knowledge regarding the
diversified conditions of human existence. It has focused on the
understanding of the variety that the Indian culture exhibits,
without ignoring the important findings of the world of
anthropology. It has been sensitive and responsive to
significant conceptual and methodological advances developing
from time to time in British, American and French anthropology.
The Indian
Anthropological Association has neither tried to enter into any
competition with the already existing organizations nor did it
duplicate their works. Over a period of time it has carved a
niche for itself. Association is truly national in character
where narrow regional considerations and parochial outlook find
no place.
The Association
consists of Life Members, Annual Members, Associate Members,
Student Members, Fellows and foreign-Fellows, as well as
Institutional Members.
