Product Information
Firmly situated within the analytics of the political economy of a north Indian province, this book explores self-fashioning in pursuit of the modern amongst low-caste Chamars. Challenging existing accounts of national modernity in the non-West, the book argues that subaltern classes shape their own ideas about modernity by taking and rejecting from models of other classes within the same national context. While displacing the West -- in its colonial and non-colonial manifestations -- as the immanent comparative focus, the book puts forward a unique framework for the analysis of subaltern modernity. This builds on the entanglements between two main trajectories, both of which are viewed as the outcome of the generative impetus of modernisation in India: the first consists of the Chamar appropriation of socio-cultural distinctions forged by 19th-century Indian middle classes in their encounter with colonial modernity; the second features the Chamar subversion of high-caste ideals and practices as a result of low-caste politics initiated during the 20th century. The author contends that these conflicting trends give rise to a temporal antinomy within the Chamar politics of self-making, caught up between compulsions of a past modern and of a contemporary one. The eclectic outcome is termed as 'retro-modernity'. While the book signals a politics of becoming whose dynamics had previously been overlooked by scholars, it simultaneously opens up novel avenues for the understanding of non-elite modern life-forms in postcolonial settings. The book will interest scholars of anthropology, South Asian studies, development studies, gender studies, political science and postcolonial studies.

- c***c (459)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufA reliable and professional seller offering a wide range of items. Not always the cheapest option but certainly a store upon which you can depend. My goods were dispatched promptly, packaged appropriately and, upon receipt, found to be exactly as described. Communication throughout the process was good and I'd have no hesitation in purchasing from here in the future.
- 3***a (323)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe book was sent well packed and arrived in good condition. The seller was extremely supportive and when l explained that this book did not contain the content that l was looking for l was given a refund which happened very quickly and l offered to send the book back but the seller told me to keep it which l thought was very generous of the seller. I have bought books from this seller before and always had good service and in the future l will purchase again. Thanks to a very good seller.
- u***D- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe item was promptly dispatched in time frame and was in very high quality condition when received. The recipient's name was unfortunately omitted although the address was correct. Very professionally packaged to ensure pristine condition of item. Wish the seller would communicate and reply more frequently to messages if possible on eBay. Otherwise good service overall. I recommend buying from The Nile for competitive prices.The Three Kingdoms of Korea: Lost Civilizations by Richard D. McBride II Hardcov (Nr. 135297480023)
