Focusing on the Yadavs, a historically marginalized caste in North India, this ethnographic study examines how democracy evolves within social and cultural contexts. It highlights the transformation of the Yadavs into a politically assertive community, exploring their influence on popular politics and the broader implications for democratic practices in India. Through this lens, the book sheds light on the interplay between caste dynamics and political power.
