It is divided into two key segments: the first explores the theoretical and conceptual aspects of social stratification and mobility, while the second presents an empirical analysis of social stratification in India, focusing on caste, class, ethnicity, power, social inequality, and social mobility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book critically examines the relationship between theoretical frameworks and empirical realities, with a specific focus on how these concepts manifest in the Indian context. The author challenges conventional ideas about caste, class, and the rural-urban divide, illustrating how these distinctions have transformed in contemporary India. Sharma argues that the traditional caste-class polarity and the divide between the country and town no longer hold, as new patterns of social stratification and mobility emerge in the wake of structural and cultural changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn exploring these transformations, the book introduces a new set of theoretical and conceptual paradigms, offering fresh insights into how entrenched social structures are being challenged. The study also emphasizes the role of culture in shaping social stratification and explores how gender and the weaker sections of society are affected by these shifts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work further explores the dynamics of social stratification in both rural and urban settings, providing a nuanced understanding of how these patterns vary across different social contexts. Through an interdisciplinary approach, the author highlights the emergence of new questions and social encounters in India's evolving social landscape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a focus on contemporary India, the book serves as an essential resource for understanding the ongoing transformations in social stratification and mobility, making it a valuable text for students, scholars, and researchers in sociology and social sciences.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rawat Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49992498512176,"sku":"DRG.RawatPublications_9788131614006","price":1037.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/71EsY-ZDUkL.jpg?v=1756465149","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/social-stratification","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
