This volume offers for the first time a comprehensive and in-depth
analysis of the making and maintenance of a modern caste society in
colonial and postcolonial West Bengal in India. Drawing on
cutting-edge multidisciplinary scholarship, it explains why caste
continues to be neglected in the politics of and scholarship on
West Bengal, and how caste relations have permeated the politics of
the region until today. The essays presented here dispel the myth
that caste does not matter in Bengali society and politics, and
make possible meaningful comparisons and contrasts with other
regions in South Asia. The work will interest scholars and
researchers in sociology, social anthropology, politics, modern
Indian history and cultural studies.
