  Addresses the problem of untouchability by providing an overview of the subject as well as insights into its social and religious origins. This book demonstrates that untouchability is a deeply ambiguous condition: neither inside nor outside society, reviled yet indispensable, untouchables constitute an original category of social exclusion.
