Thus, it fills an important gap in the existing labour historiography, which has tended to focus more on ‘modern’ sites of labour such as Factories, mines and plantations. The book explores the modernity\/tradition dichotomy as it has been applied and amplified in our understanding of development, demonstrating that some of the categorizations fundamental to these understandings are in fact profoundly misplaced. Indeed, the argument regarding processes of ‘localization’ made here is particularly promising in the sense that it does not posit localization in opposition to but in tandem with global processes. The book explores historically grounded, tension-filled categories like Class, caste and community, and perhaps its most significant contribution lies in tracing the history of the julaha community.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789390737758\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.5 x 6.5 x 1.5 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Primus Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50135332749616,"sku":"DRG.ePrimus_9789390737758","price":1197.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/6113Djue-GS.jpg?v=1757604597","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/weaving-hierarchies-handloom-weavers-in-early-twentieth-century-united-provinces","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
