Giving a brief account of the geography of Karnataka, they examine the process by which the modern state of Karnataka emerged. Further tracing the origin and growth of the office of the Speaker in the state, the contributors take stock of the position of the office of the Chief Minister and analyse the functional dimensions of judiciary, the role of the leader of opposition, functions of the Public Service Commission and the structure as well as working of the Secretariat. They also extend discussion on the representation of women in local government, socio-economic bases of state politics, the working of party system, the dimensions of planning, impact of language on politics, implications of communal issues, the politics of separate statehood, land reforms, working of Panchayati Raj institutions, and the role of the press in the politics of Karnataka.
