Effect of Urbanization on Indian Socio Cultural System
Urbanization of India has taken its toll on social organization by changing the rural-urban relationship and social corporation of society. Societal structures, family structures, and cultural patterns of a rural setup that may have been cordoned off for generations have changed as urban areas expand so rapidly.
Among all of the factors of urbanization, one experiences the most profound influence on the caste structure. In the city, there are always chances in the economic as well as in the social sector that has cut down the role of caste and its hierarchy, which gives more merit related things to this place. However, casted based system still prevails in the sphere of politics and society, but not as dominating as it is in other states of India.
Yet another area through which urbanization brings about changes is in relation to family systems. While the nuclear family is rapidly replacing the joint family prevalent in rural areas, the restricted western style urban codes depict a different a picture. Availability and affordability of housing, change in life style, and increased emphasis on having smaller families have all led to reduction in the ‘daughter- in -law’ threshold deploying and thereby weakening kinship support network in families.
The rapid growth of the rate of urbanization has encouraged a giant hike in the movement of people from the rural areas into the towns. The human migration is in search of better employment opportunities, and therefore, there are two the socio-economic structure that developed is a duality; large sections of such immigrants remain victims of poor housing informal schemes, no social security and total cultural exclusion besides aggravating growth of urban slums and increasing income disparity.
Despite the fact that urbanization reacts positively on the economic growth, modernization and social aspect of life there is more negative social and economical effects cutting down on the traditional culture. The change in operation of Indian identity, relativity to the community and culture keeps shaping the social structure of India as it transitions from the traditional to the contemporary world.
