Status and Sacredness: A General Theory of Status Relations and an Analysis of Indian Culture
Milner
In this provocative study, Milner argues against the widely held view that the caste system of India is unique. Instead he contends that caste distinctions which appear to be singular or exotic are actually similar to customs elsewhere–a theory that sets in sharp relief the methods by which society is organized around status relations.
