Transaction and Hierarchy Elements for a Theory of Caste

Transaction and Hierarchy Elements for a Theory of Caste

In this volume the author challenges a number of widely held cultural stereotypes about India. Caste is not as old as Indian civilization itself and current changes are no more radical than in the past for caste has evolved throughout its history. It is not a colonial invention nor does it result from weak state control. There is no single form of Indian kingship and power relations fundamental as they are for understanding Indian society. Nor do Indian villages conform to a single type and caste is as much urban as rural. Only in a regional ‘local’ perspective can we view it as a ‘system’. Caste does offer space for the individual though in a particular Indian mould and Hinduism does not provide for an integration of castes through ritual. In short social organization varies widely in India and cannot provide the key to the specificity of caste. This must be sought in the way society is imagined the models of society current in Indian thought. Of course as mentioned above there is no single model: Brahmins kings and merchants among others have all produced alternative models with themselves at the centre vying for hegemony while facing contesting models held by subalterns. Still a hierarchical mode of thought is hegemonic and largely explains why Indians see their social stratification differently from people in the West. The volume will be indispensable for scholars of South Asian Sociology and Culture. | Transaction and Hierarchy Elements for a Theory of Caste

The Relation of Wealth to Welfare

The Relation of Wealth to Welfare

First Published in 1924 The Relation of Wealth to Welfare examines certain definite and fundamental elements of human welfare and their relation to private income on the one hand and various kinds of collective action on the other. The four elements discussed in the book are health art work and education. The author argues that the power of private income to increase the welfare of its possessor in regard to the various elements under examination is as a matter of fact frequently or even always comparatively small; whereas the power of collective action and public expenditure to do so is often comparatively great. This book is an essential read for students and researchers of political economy political studies and economics in general.

Theorising Public Pedagogy The Educative Agent in the Public Realm

Theorising Public Pedagogy The Educative Agent in the Public Realm

Drawing on the ideas of Hannah Arendt and Michel Foucault this book extends the theoretical understanding of public pedagogy and brings into sharp focus the elements that constitute the public realm; the site of public pedagogy. Karen Charman and Mary Dixon offer a new theorisation of the public a term at the heart of debate in the field heightened in this post-truth era by the COVID-19 pandemic the rise of fake news and the technological reconfigurations of public life. The new theorization addresses the ‘public’ ‘pedagogy’ and their confluence in ‘public pedagogy’.

The authors contribute to a theorisation that re-considers the individual and their capacity for agency within the public realm. The book presents knowledge and pedagogical encounters as key elements of public pedagogy and most significantly the educative agent as a means of critically rethinking social life and learning in public spaces. Presenting an innovative theoretical approach this book will be of interest to academics in the fields of public and critical pedagogy and postgraduate students in education cultural studies and politics. | Theorising Public Pedagogy The Educative Agent in the Public Realm

Two Papers 'The Grid' and 'Caesura'

Two Papers 'The Grid' and 'Caesura'

The Grid an instrument devised to help the analyst record and elaborate observations arising from the analytic encounter demonstrates how mathematics can be applied to locate the development evolution and transformation of psychic elements and events. Caesura takes its title from Freud's observation: There is much more continuity between intra-uterine life than the impressive caesura of the act of birth would have us believe. Here Bion speculates on the relationship between physiological and psychological birth and the possibility that a pre-natal primitive sensitiveness may carry over and inform later psychological life. | Two Papers 'The Grid' and 'Caesura'
