Caste has become a central symbol for India, suggesting an area which is socially and culturally different from other places, as well as expressing its essence. The author argues that caste is in fact nither an unchanged survival of ancient India nor a single system that reflects some core culture. Rather than being an expression of Indian tradition, Caste is a relatively modern phenomenon - the product of the ecounter between India and British colonial rule. The book shows that it was on account of British domination that caste became a single term capable of naming as well as subsumising India`s diverse forms of social identity and organisation. The auther examines the rise of caste politics in contemporary India, in particular caste based mvements and their implications for Indian nationhood. ISBN : 9788178240725
