Language, Society and Culture
At the beginning concerns among many of the anthropologists were, why and how language could be
useful in the study of culture. Later, language both as an independent system and as a part of the
culture became a significant field of inquiry. This Paper will consider those diversified theoretical
developments in study of language. However, understanding of the relations of meaning eventually
leads to the understanding of the relations of power. Parallels between the social transformation and
that of the language will also be addressed in exploring the relationship between society, culture and
language.

Social Inequality
Credits: 4
The purpose of this Paper is to focus on different types of inequality based on class, gender, caste,
race and ethnicity, both at general theoretical level and in the context of specific societies. Starting
with the classic and path-breaking class theory of Marxism, it eventually would light on the
interventions made by Weber and challenges posed by Gramsci. Major schools of feminist thought
will also be discussed. Orthodox and contemporary understanding of the older concepts like caste and
race will be made familiar to the students in light of consumerism and ethnicity-nationality
continuum.

academic committee of the department will suggest at least ten contemporary topics for the respective
year to offer under this Paper. Assigned Paper teacher will basically focus on the theoretical and
methodological knowledge of the discipline on how anthropology/anthropologist reflects having
disciplinary knowledge upon the suggested topics. However, Paper teacher will be given freedom, not
absolute authority, to choose the topics at his/her convenience.
