Untouchable Pasts by Saurabh Dube
By casting these analytical tendencies in a critical dialogue with one another, Untouchable Pasts works toward questioning some of those overarching oppositions-for example, between ritual and rationality, myth and history, tradition and modernity, and community and state-that have formed the conceptual core of several inherited traditions of social and political theory within the academy in both Western and non-Western contexts.-
