Frequently these exclusions are underwritten with a rhetoric of disgust. People of certain groups it is alleged are filthy hyper - animal or not fit to share such facilities as drinking water food and public swimming pools with the 'clean and 'fully human majority. But exclusions vary in their scope and also in the specific disgust - ideologies underlying them. In this volume interdisciplinary scholars from India and the United States present a detailed comparative study of the varieties of prejudice and stigma that pervade contemporary social and political life. These include prejudice along the axes of caste race gender identity age sexual orientation disability ethnicity religion and economic class. In examining these forms of stigma and their intersections the authors present theoretically pluralistic and empirically sensitive accounts that both explain group - based stigma and suggest ways forward. These forward - looking remedies including group resistance to subordination as well as institutional and legal change point the way towards a public culture that is informed by our diverse histories of discrimination and therefore equipped to eliminate stigma in all of its multifaceted forms.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: The Empire Of Disgust Prejudice Discrimination And Policy In India And The Us\u003cbr\u003e\nBrand: Oup India\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780199487837\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 440 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 12\/13\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Law","brand":"Oup India","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49593160139057,"sku":"IN-G-9780199487837","price":69.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780199487837.jpg?v=1754874317","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780199487837-the-empire-of-disgust-prejudice-discrimination-and-policy-in-india-and-the-us","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
