Yogendra Singh
A review of the studies on caste and class in contemporary India could be undertaken in terms of available replies to a set of questions, such as: what is the nature and reality of caste and class in Indian society today? In what ways are changes at the level of these two categories interlinked, or generate processes significant to the transformation of the system of social stratification? And, what bearing have these processes upon the modernisation of Indian society? The following pages are devoted to a treatment of these questions in the light of some recent studies on caste and class.
