Whatever Happened to Class?: Reflections from South Asia - Paperback

by Rina Agarwala (Editor), Ronald J. Herring (Editor), Christopher Candland (Contribution by)

Class explains much in the differentiation of life chances and political dynamics in South Asia, yet has fallen from favor. In this volume, original empirical work investigates the contributions and limits of class analysis in understanding politics and allocative patterns of a globalizing South Asia, with suggestions for refining theory.
