CASTE FUNCTIONS, HIERARCHY AND SOCIAL POWER (2011)

This book presents interesting accounts about functioning of Indian castes as corporate groups and as social power groups in a multi-caste rural society. It throws new light on inter caste interactions, social distance between castes and a statistical operational model of caste hierarchy. Case-histories of intra caste and inter caste conflicts reveal in depth facts about prevailing social relations between men of different castes.
