This Survey of Research and Explorations in geography is one of the series of exercises initiated by the Indian Council of Social Science Research (ICSSR) since 1969, covering the disciplines of geography, economics, sociology, political science, and psychology. These disciplines have interfaces among them and have the potential to strengthen the interdisciplinary focus to identify complex and challenging issues that man has to face under the impact of modern technology on the life and living conditions of the people. Dichotomy between the developed and developing world has been increasing in spite of the efforts to integrate their economies through globalization. Also, the impact of globalization on the polarized economy of India prior to independence has further resulted in increasing regional disparities within the country, thereby affecting the living conditions of different sections of the people, particularly of the poorest among them. Economic geography aims at understanding the spatial organization of the national economy centred on the system of relatively few large cities in the midst of an ocean of villages and small towns. This needs to be reversed by integrating the development of a system of small towns as agro-industrial centres that would enable diversification of employment, infrastructure, and provision of social facilities and amenities. These aspects of development have a human face in socio-economic development, which has strong regional affinity and powerful force for dispersal of economic activities with people’s participation in the development process.
