The Vernacularisation of Democracy: Politics, Caste and Religion in India - Exploring the Political in South Asia
Michelutti, Lucia (London School of Economics, UK)
The book is an ethnographic exploration of how ‘democracy’ takes social and cultural roots in India and in the process shapes the nature of popular politics. It centres on a historically marginalised caste who in recent years has become one of the most assertive and politically powerful communities in North India: the Yadavs.
