The optionals desk
The same policy story can be general studies and optional material. These tags surface the overlap for PSIR, Geography, Sociology, Public Administration, History and Anthropology. They are a reading lens, not a substitute for your optional textbooks.
Optional
Political Science & International Relations
Political theory, comparative politics, Indian government and the whole of international relations.
Optional
Geography
Physical geography, Indian geography, resources, population and the spatial logic behind the news.
Optional
Sociology
Social structure, caste, family, gender, religion, social change and the sociology of contemporary India.
Optional
Public Administration
Administrative theory, Indian administration, governance, public policy and the machinery of the state.
Optional
History
Ancient, medieval and modern India, the freedom struggle, art and culture, and the uses of the past.
Optional
Anthropology
Physical and socio-cultural anthropology, tribal studies, kinship, religion, material culture and human evolution.
A single story may be tagged for more than one optional, because the syllabus overlaps. Use thesyllabus mapfor the general-studies view, and the optional chips on the home feed to narrow the wire.
