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\n\u003cp\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\n\u003cp\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":"Allen Lane","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52904165278005,"sku":"EB_SS0600_J16-02_AD","price":120.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0971\/7773\/1381\/files\/9780241486511-1.jpg?v=1789400304","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.ae\/ja\/products\/9780241486511","provider":"Books Kinokuniya UAE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
