THE DEVELOPMENT OF ARYAN INVASION THEORY IN IND...

This book delves deep into the Social Construction of Theory  comparative epistemology and
intellectual history to stress the interrelationship between diverse cultures during the
colonial period and bring forth convincing evidence of how the 19th century was shaped. It
approaches an interesting relation between the linguistic studies of 19th century's scientific
world and subsequent widespread acceptance of the empirically weak theory of the Aryan
invasion. To show entangled history in a globalized world  the book draws on the Aryan Invasion
Theory to highlight how different socio-religious parties commonly shape a new theory. It also
explores how research is affected by the so-called social construction of theory and
comparative epistemology  and deals with scholarly advancement and its relation with
contemporary socio-political demands. The most significant conclusion of the book is that
academic studies are prone to comparative epistemology  even under the strict scrutinyof the
so-called scientific methods.
