Political Economy of Caste in India presents the caste mode of production as an important analytical tool to understand the socio-economic and political dynamics of India. The book looks at caste from the economic base and also links it with the superstructure that includes judiciary, untouchability practices, caste atrocities against Dalits, social exclusion and so on. It presents empirical studies to show that the social habits of discrimination and crimes against the marginalized communities prevail even in the 21st century to physically alienate them from mainstream opportunities and ensure involuntary supply of labour at lower wages. It articulates that the economic intensity of caste can be discerned through the caste mode of production. The study brings out the limitations of some of the Marxists understanding of caste. It also presents a distinct approach for comprehending caste and suggests that the human rights perspective is one of the ways to combat it.

Why has there not been more progress with reducing poverty in India? Patrons of the Poor offers a rich and contemporary account of politics and policymaking in India, as it seeks to provide an answer to this vital question. Despite unprecedented economic growth, the last twenty years have witnessed a growing divergence across Indian states in terms of their poverty alleviation records. In that context, and given that state governments are responsible for a wide range of redistributive policies, this book analyses trends in state politics and policymaking. Based on the analysis, it explains why some Indian states have managed to reduce poverty more effectively than others. Using detailed case studies from Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, the author examines the policymaking processes and political histories of these states. He argues that patterns of caste dominance combined with the degree of competition in populist policies can significantly explain whether states adopt pro-poor policies or not. Lakshman's analysis combines a deep reading of state-specific political and sociological data with a range of interviews with top political leaders, senior bureaucrats, and academics to corroborate his core argument.

This book examines the structures of power and hierarchies within the agrarian political economy in India, with a focus on gender. It analyses various forms of inequalities within rural structures while situating the position of women and Dalit agriculture labourers within these discriminate networks of social exclusion, political marginalisation and poverty. The book maps the impacts of neoliberal capitalist globalisation on agrarian relations to identify who labourers are and how rural diversification is shaped by class, caste and gender hierarchies specifically in the villages of eastern Uttar Pradesh. It looks at occupational patterns of women workers, labour relations and reconceptualisation of labour. The book documents the experiences of exploitation as well as forms of resistance and collective action of rural women labourers. In doing this, the book deals with processes witnessed across the global South - rural distress, depeasantisation, migration, feminisation of agriculture as well as identity-based inequalities in rural labour markets. Rich in empirical data, the book will be useful for scholars and researchers of labour studies, women's studies, political economy, agrarian economy, agrarian sociology, rural sociology, sociology, development studies and political studies.

Caste in India, despite its historical resilience, has been undergoing transformation since independence. If caste as a system of rigid stratification has been on the decline, castes as autonomous interest-serving groups have been on ascendance. This book critically engages with the changing notions of caste and its intersection with public policy in India. It discusses key issues such as social security, internal reservation, the idea of Most Backward Classes, caste issues among non-Hindu religious communities, caste in census, caste in market, and service castes and urban planning. Drawing on in-depth case studies from states including Andhra Pradesh, Delhi, Karnataka, Punjab, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, and West Bengal, the volume explores the cyclical process of how caste drives policies, and how policies in turn shape the reality of caste in India. It looks at the impact of factors like protective discrimination, adult franchise and democratic decentralisation, horizontal and vertical mobilisation, land reforms, and religious conversion on social mobility, and traditional hierarchy in India. Empirically rich and analytically rigorous, this book will be an excellent reference for scholars and researchers of public policy, public administration, sociology, exclusion studies, social work, law, history, economics, political science, development studies, social anthropology, and political sociology. It will also be of interest to public policy and development practitioners.

This commemorative volume is based on Yalavarthi Naveen Babu s M.Phil. dissertation in Sociology from Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. Using the more dynamic conception of jati as opposed to a static Western understanding of caste, Naveen Babu traces its history in the social, cultural and economic aspects of the formation of Varna into jati from the Rg-Vedic period to the end of 20th century. He demonstrates how these changes were grounded into the changing modes of production and its accompanying social formation. Naveen Babu's work is a modest but significant interdisciplinary contribution to Indian Marxist historiography, sociology and political economy. It is relevant, not only for a scientific understanding of caste, but also for contemporary social movements against the caste and class divided Indian society. It is hoped that readers of this book will be further motivated to dig deeper into the complexity of the present social formation that embodies the subcontinent.// Other contributors include sociologists such as Prof. Yogendra Singh, political scientist Prof. Manorajan Mohanty, revolutionary poet Dr. Vara Vara Rao and Naveen s friends and contemporaries, including the Editor, B. Ramesh Babu, a biotechnologist, entrepreneur and a faculty at Wayne State University, USA.// Yalavarthi Naveen Babu, fondly known to his friends as Naveen, was born in a middle caste, middle peasant family on 29 May 1964 in Guddikayalanka village, Repalle Mandal, Guntur District, Andhra Pradesh (AP), India. After schooling, Naveen moved to the state capital, Hyderabad, where he completed his intermediate and B.Sc. from Babu Jagjivan Ram College, and later moved to Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi, where he completed his MA in Sociology. His M.Phil. dissertation, for which he was awarded his degree in 1989, is published as such in the initial part of this book. He enrolled for Ph.D. under Prof. Yogendra Singh, but discontinued later as he could not devote enough time for his thesis work due to his increasing commitment for political activism. Since early 1990s, he became a full-time activist of CPI-ML (Peoples' War), now known as CPI (Maoist), and grew up fast in its ranks to the Central Committee level through his scholarly understanding of issues, pleasant personality and revolutionary fervour. He was martyred on 18th February 2000 in Darakonda, a village near Visakhapatnam, AP.
