Overview
Rejecting the obsolete methodology of comparisons between categories, Classes, Citizenship and Inequality: Emerging Perspectives contains essays that analyse both general and specific features of the phenomenon of inequality by looking at comparisons within as well. This is facilitated by the fact that the eight authors are equally drawn from two different social contexts: a "developed" European country (Germany) and a "developing" South Asian country (India). The vast scope of this study includes factors such as historicity, culture, social structure, level of economic development and the nature of the political regime. This rich inquiry into the very notion of inequality vis-a-vis globalization will be of great interest to students, scholars of social science, policymakers and the general reader alike.
