Since the Independence (1947), India has undergone profound social, political and economic transformations driven by the agrarian reforms in the 1950s, the Green Revolution in the 1970s and the neoliberal turn in the 1990s. While these changes have undeniably contributed to the economic development of the country, it is less clear to what extent better opportunities for social mobility opened up to individuals and groups of individuals historically disadvantaged by their caste affiliation. Large-scale studies of social mobility in India have been limited by the lack of intergenerational data and the impossibility to disaggregate caste categories into jatis (birth-ascribed endogamous groups). Using unique data at the individual level of the entire population of Palanpur, a village in Uttar Pradesh, surveyed seven times from 1958 to 2015, this thesis aims at verifying whether the social mobility has increased over time and whether the caste, at the jati level, continues to prevail as a factor of social stratification. We combine a longitudinal analysis of trends, patterns and determinants of social mobility over three generations of individuals with a qualitative analysis of 102 semi-structured interviews carried out during six months fieldwork. We find evidence of social mobility increasing but mainly downward and horizontal from the agrarian classes toward the class of daily manual workers. The upper classes maintain a comparative advantage in terms of social stability, but secondary education increasingly equalizes the chances of upward mobility. However, access to education remains sensitive to economic inequalities and social origins. Globally, the influence of caste on the social destination has diminished for all, regardless of class of origin and level of education. Moreover, although historically disadvantaged castes still have relatively lower chances to access the salariat class, a perception of empowerment emerges among lower castes who were previously dominated by large landholders. Ultimately, caste would partly dissociate from class, and power would shift from the ritual sphere to the economic sphere. Beyond this case study, the thesis develops an original approach of mixed methodology and a comprehensive analysis of the material and subjective dimensions of mobility and intersectionality.

This volume is an introduction to the role of caste and class in Indian society, meant to emphasize certain important aspects of Indian society such as continuity and change in caste, economic classes, status of women, status of Harijans, village poli-tics, overseas Indians, and casteism and tribalism. Its theoretical interest is to explain the dynamics of social inequalities in Indian society. All but one of the essays are based on research conducted in India. The other is based on research on Indian plantation workers in Sri Lanka, and included here to demonstrate that the concepts of caste and class are relevant to understanding In-dians who have emigrated to overseas countries.

"Social stratification as a theme of study and research in sociology occupies a place of immense significance. Structural, ideological and emotional issues, involved in the study of social stratification, have created controversies and diametrically contrary viewpoints. Professor Sharma examines critically theoretical and methodological issues in the essays included in this volume. A preference for the structural-historical approach with interdisciplinary focus is evident in it. Further, the book provides a comprehensive and critical review of the studies on social stratification particularly from a sociology of knowledge perspective. The debate regarding caste and class is presented with a refreshing analysis in terms of their nexus and continuity and change. Gaps between theory and method in respect of the studies on social stratification in India have also been pointed out. A note of Louis Dumontâ??s ""Homo Hierarchicus"" provides a brief, though critical, account of the structuralist perspective on caste stratification. Profiles of social stratification in specific settings such as urban-industrial, rural-agrarian and tribal provide a semblance of theoretical issues and empirical realities. Essays on social stratification and mobility among the scheduled castes, in particular, highlight the caste-class nexus. How ethnicity and class influence social relations among the tribal people is discussed in detail. Although, social mobility is discussed as a concurrent theme in all the essays, levels of social mobility, downward social mobility and social mobility among the scheduled castes have been analyzed specifically in the book.The book encompasses all that which one would normally like to know about social stratification in India.
