Class, Caste and Hierarchies
by Jeremy Seabrook

Despite two centuries of industrialization, social relationships still tend to be defined by whether you are an owner, a manager or a shop-floor worker. In older but less industrialised societies, notably India, the caste system defines inherited positions in society. In totalitarian regimes, a hierarchical structure is created through party allegiance, bureaucratic or military rank. Jeremy Seabrook asks who is to guarantee social justice.

Well illustrated with diagrams and graphs.
