“…Attitudinal barriers are not limited to rural mental health help-seeking; however, it is considered highly likely that rurality does impact the prevalence and nature of these barriers (Jackson et al, 2007). Definitions of rurality can be loosely categorized into geographic, economic, and sociocultural subdivisions (Johnson & Ragusa, 2014; Pandey, 2003). This review is concerned with attitudinal barriers and therefore focuses on sociocultural rurality, while recognizing the influence of geographic and economic factors.…”

People living in rural areas are more likely to experience attitudinal mental health help-seeking barriers than their urban equivalents, but the role rurality plays in this inequality is poorly understood. This systematic qualitative review aimed to explore the attitudinal barriers experienced by rural residents and better define rurality's role in them. Four attitudinal barrier themes are identified from this review as being experienced by rural residents-stoicism, stigma, distrust, and meaning, and the coexistence of multiple barriers were observed. Rurality is found to have an influence on the stoicism, stigma, and distrust barriers and is explicitly vocalized within barrier statements. With a relationship between rurality and mental health help-seeking barriers strongly implied, we endorse the need for targeted research to inform future policymaking and practice to address urban and rural mental health help-seeking inequalities.

Sociological Imagination and Literary Sensitivity: A Tribute to M. N. Srinivas

M. N. Srinivas is undoubtedly the most readable among sociologists in India. For him, the way he wrote about a subject was as important as the subject itself. This lent a literary flavour to his writings. His writings are, in fact, imbued with a rare combination of sociological imagination and literary sensitivity; The Remembered Village, his masterpiece is perhaps the best illustration of this. In his Hassan Raja Rao Lecture, titled ‘Social Anthropology and Literary Sensibility’ (1998), he explained the relevance and importance of such sensitivity for sociologists engaged in understanding society and culture. Taking a cue from this, the instant lecture examines the mutual relations between sociological imagination and literary sensitivity. Substantively, it elucidates the sociological imagination embedded in literature and the consequent importance of literature for the sociologist.

“…Subsequently, the village came to be represented in a set of iconic images in novels, short stories, plays, poetry and other related genres of nationalist literature (Bhalla and Bumke 1992;Pandey 2003). By the 1920s, academic studies of the village too came to be institutionalised, signalling the growing hold of the village over the nationalist imagination (Ranade 1926, Majumdar 1929, Shukla 1937).…”

Early colonial scholar-administrators preferred to describe Indian society as a sum total of self-sufficient ‘little republics’-its villages. The view stemmed not from the prevailing constitution of the Indian society but because of the imperatives of consolidating an empire over an alien land. Post-Independence, the caste-view of Indian society overtook the village-view. The village declined in significance as labelling of social groups and recording of genealogies became absolutely central to administration. A look into the nationalists’ points of view, both pre-and post-Independence, shows that the idea of the village varied as per different currents of thought and practice. The perceptions of Gandhi and Ambedkar, for instance, indicate how competing political agendas made a significant impact on the varied idealisations/criticisms of the Indian village. At the same time, all these views helped bring the village into the centre of ideological and political debate.
