Challenging dominant social theories of caste, this book shows how the terrain of culture captured by a new grammar of caste revitalizes castes as culturalcommunities and casteism as cultural preference. It addresses the questions how caste survives the system that gave rise to it and adapts to new demands ofcapitalism and democracy and whether there is a new casteism in India.
