It is about power - which groups have it and which do not'\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBeyond race or class, our lives are defined by a powerful, unspoken system of divisions. In Caste, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Isabel Wilkerson gives an astounding portrait of this hidden phenomenon. Linking America, India and Nazi Germany, Wilkerson reveals how our world has been shaped by caste - and how its rigid, arbitrary hierarchies still divide us today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWith clear-sighted rigour, Wilkerson unearths the eight pillars that connect caste systems across civilizations, and demonstrates how our own era of intensifying conflict and upheaval has arisen as a consequence of caste. Weaving in stories of real people, she shows how its insidious undertow emerges every day; she documents its surprising health costs; and she explores its effects on culture and politics. Finally, Wilkerson points forward to the ways we can - and must - move beyond its artificial divisions, towards our common humanity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBeautifully written and deeply original, Caste is an eye-opening examination of what lies beneath the surface of ordinary lives. No one can afford to ignore the moral clarity of its insights, or its urgent call for a freer, fairer world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32577545404482,"sku":"","price":999.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0263\/4884\/7170\/products\/9780241486511.jpg?v=1606848259","url":"https:\/\/koolskoolbookstore.com\/products\/caste-the-origins-of-our-discontents-hardback","provider":"KoolSkool The Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
