Book Summary
Homo Hierarchicus
Lois Dumont
Lois Dumont In his book “Homo
Hierarchicus” presents the Indian caste system and its organizing principles
and a provocative advance in comparison of societies on the basis of their
underlying ideologies. Dumont moves gracefully from the ethnographic data to
the level of the hierarchical ideology encrusted in ancient religious texts
which are revealed as the governing conception of the contemporary caste structure.
Dumont has also contrasted his Homo Hierarchicus with his modern Western
antithesis Nomo Equalis.
Dumont starts his elaboration
about the caste system from its definition. While defining it he took Bougle
and said that the caste system divides the whole society into a large number of
hereditary groups, distinguishing from one another and connected together by
three characteristics: separation in matters of marriage and contact, division
of labor and hierarchy.
The three principles, as he had
said in the book, rest on one fundamental conception and are reducible to a
single true principle that is the opposition of the Pure and the Impure.
Further, he adds that the coexistence of the two opposite – Pure and Impure
underlies hierarchy, which is the superiority of the pure to the impure,
underlies separation because the pure caste and the impure caste must be kept
separate, and underlies the division of labor because pure and impure
occupation must be kept separate.
Dumont, while stating the root
where the caste system is existing, adapted again Bougle’s ad said the caste
system is composed of hereditary groups which are both distinguished from one
another and connected together in
