About Us

A lot of information, providing perspectives from alternative sources, virtually lies idle in the labyrinths of the academic world, civil society and experts. It has often found to remain scattered, often disaggregated or difficult to access. CounterView, in its own humble way, seeks to serve as a gateway to such information -- published and unpublished articles, features and papers.
An open source platform, CounterView aims is to help readers to actively collate and exchange information, new and old, from people working in different fields in order to take an overview of critical issues facing society. It seeks to provide background material, analysis and studies on subjects ranging from economy, society and environment to culture, class and caste.
Not claiming to be a one-stop shop, CounterView complements the news and views current affairs site, Counterview. Of interest to activists, policy makers and analysts, CounterView publishes feature articles, opinion pieces, reports and documents. It believes that information must be accessible and freely shared among thinking individuals in order to help trigger societal changes.
