This book examines how Indian society has proliferated through an amalgamation of institutions and practices which has divided and united people across communities. This edition is a key text for students and scholars of sociology and social anthropology, political science, and South Asian studies.

This book explores the structural features of Indian society, such as caste, tribe, sect, rural-urban relations, sanskritization and untouchability. Based on a wealth of field research as well as archival material, the book

  • Interrogates the prevailing thinking in Indian sociology on these structures;

  • Studies Indian society from contemporary as well as historical perspectives;

  • Analyses caste divisions vis-à-vis caste hierarchy;

  • Critically examines the public policies regarding caste-less society, reservations for Backward Classes, and the caste census.

This second edition, with four new chapters, will be a key text for students and scholars of sociology, social anthropology, political science, modern history, development studies and South Asian studies.
