He was perhaps the most popular of the pioneers in Indian sociology.
DP Mukerji contributed the perspective of Marxian sociology in India. He was tolerant of western ideas, concepts and analytical categories. He viewed that there is a need for an indigenous sociology and social anthropology, but he certainly did not want to insulate these disciplines in India from the western social traditions. He was one of the very few social scientists in the academic world who recognized the importance of Marxism to analyse socio-economic forces operating in human society.
Here, I would like to highlight DP’s contribution :
1. Personality
2. Modern Indian Culture
3. Making of Indian History
4. Nature and Method of Sociology
5. Role of New Middle Classes
6. Modernization
7. Music
8. Traditions
D.P. Mukerji was a versatile scholar. He wrote nineteen books, including Diversities (1958); ten in Bengali and nine in English. His early publications include; Basic Concepts in Sociology (1932) and Personality and the Social Sciences (1924)
