Beteille, Andre.

Society and politics in India : essays in a comparative perspective. - Delhi Oxford University Press. 1992 - 317 p.

This volume brings together some of the most important essays written over the past two decades by one of India's most distinguished social scientists. They focus upon the relationship between various forms of inequality and distinction (race, caste, tribe, ethnicity and gender) and on concepts of the person; on the relationship between the values of equality and individualism; and on the ambivalent role of the modern Indian state as the guarantor of these values.
