- The book is the result of a collaborative research effort conducted over four years, drawing on collective and extensive in-depth fieldwork of five anthropologists exploring a shared set of questions using collectively designed methodology while working in their own fieldsite for at least a year. It presents a significant interdisciplinary dialogue between economists and anthropologists which uniquely articulates global theories of race- ethnicity-based oppression in the modern economy with on-going inequalities predicated on class, caste and tribe. This multi-layered analytical process and complex collective investigation drew on the PI’s own long-standing ethnographic research of 4.5 years on inequality in India.
