Overview
This collection of essays, the third after Antinomies and Sociology, reflects Béteille's thinking on the large inequalities that exist in democratic societies. The essays examine the different forms of inequality and also the limits to the persuit of equality. While the focus is primarily on India, a general and comparative method for discussion is also adopted. The essays draw from the author's substantial work on class, status and caste as also on those concerning justice and equality.
