About
Based on anthropological fieldwork in the Indian state of Rajasthan, the author explores the manner in which semi-nomadic performers known as Bhats understand caste hierarchies. He demonstrates how the ability to cleverly rework and sabotage lingering caste inequalities forms the basis for Bhat claims to status in contemporary India.
