Practicing Caste attempts a break from the tradition of caste studies, using versions of phenomenology, structuralism and post-structuralism; and gives a description of touchability and untouchability in terms of a rhetoric and semantics of touch.
A fundamental break from most accounts of caste, which are socio-historical in orientation, showing instead the resources that phenomenology and philosophical accounts of the body can offer for understanding the phenomenon.
