This paper tries to articulate some of the socio-cultural impacts of the globalization induced ICT [Information and Communication Technology] revolution in India from sociological view points. Having perceived the phenomenon within the framework of social stratification, the paper tries to deal with the, (i) emergence of a new class of capitalists and a new class of elite workforce that has come to be known as ICT/ knowledge workers, (along with its own sub-culture). (ii) Further, the paper tries to sociologically analyze the phenomenon of growing class consciousness among the knowledge workers in terms of being class in itself / class for itself as they displayed conscious resistance to unionize themselves. (iii) The paper also analyzes the phenomenon of embourgeoisement among the knowledge workers in terms of their cultural and social capitals. Thus, based on primary as well as secondary source observations, the paper is a study of India’s Techno-Coolie and Cyber-Coolie, as a new class of elite technical workforce, the basis of its identity formation and its emerging sub-culture.

The paper describes the cultural and social history of Székesfehérvár at the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century. The author introduces the modernization of a town with medieval traditions in the new age while also looking at the development and alteration of the concept of ’nation’ and national awareness, as these are some of the main components of identity development during the civilization process in the town. The author investigates the processes by which the majority of the residents became speakers of Hungarian from German, the dominant first language after the Turkish era.
