15 reviews for Academic Dependency in the Social Sciences

  1. Tushar Singh Gujar

    Important topic, but the writing style was a bit dry. Still, it offered a critical perspective on academic dependency that’s worth considering.

  2. Aakash Gupta

    It raises important questions about academic integrity. The writing style could have been better, but the message is powerful.

  3. Aayush Sharma

    While the topic is important, the book felt a bit theoretical and lacked practical solutions to the issues it raises.

  4. Pallavi Singh

    I found the analysis insightful, although the book could have benefited from more concrete examples beyond the SEPHIS project.

  5. Arpit Jain

    A must-read for understanding the subtle influences on academic agendas. It’s sparked many interesting discussions in our research group.

  6. Anant Garg

    This book is essential for those studying global studies and social sciences. The concepts are bit complex, but useful for understanding power dynamics.

  7. Pranjal Kumar

    Challenging but rewarding. It’s a critical examination of how global structures shape research. Prepare for a deep dive into the topic.

  8. Mohit Kumar Swami

    A real eye-opener! I never realized the extent of academic dependency. Some jargon made it slow going, but worth the effort.

  9. Kranti Karan Vir Singh

    A thought-provoking read! It highlighted the subtle power dynamics in academic research. Some parts were a bit dense, but overall insightful.

  10. Vaibhav Raghuvanshi

    An important contribution to understanding the academic world’s power dynamics. Slightly repetitive in places, but overall great.

  11. Ananya Choudhury

    It opens your eyes to the unequal relationships in social sciences. Could have been written more accessibly for a broader audience.

  12. Mohammed Asim

    A valuable contribution to the discussion on academic freedom and equitable knowledge production. However, some case studies felt repetitive.

  13. Kopal Mittal

    An excellent exploration of the challenges faced by researchers in the Global South. Definitely recommend for scholars and policymakers alike.

  14. Navya

    This book is crucial for anyone involved in social science research, particularly in developing contexts. A bit academic, but very relevant.

  15. Jai Prakash

    Eye-opening! Made me question the origins and biases in much of the social science research I’ve encountered. Highly recommended.
