{"product_id":"caste-the-lies-that-divide-us","title":"Caste: The Lies That Divide Us","description":"\u003cp\u003eBeyond race or class, our lives are defined by a powerful, unspoken system of divisions. In Caste, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Isabel Wilkerson gives an astounding portrait of this hidden phenomenon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eLinking America, India and Nazi Germany, Wilkerson reveals how our world has been shaped by caste - and how its rigid, arbitrary hierarchies still divide us today. With clear-sighted rigour, Wilkerson unearths the eight pillars that connect caste systems across civilizations, and demonstrates how our own era of intensifying conflict and upheaval has arisen as a consequence of caste. Weaving in stories of real people, she shows how its insidious undertow emerges every day; she documents its surprising health costs; and she explores its effects on culture and politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, Wilkerson points forward to the ways we can - and must - move beyond its artificial divisions, towards our common humanity. Beautifully written and deeply original, Caste is an eye-opening examination of what lies beneath the surface of ordinary lives. No one can afford to ignore the moral clarity of its insights, or its urgent call for a freer, fairer world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\nPublished: in UK in 2020\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Penguin Books Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 496\u003cbr\u003e\nLanguage: English\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN 13: 9780241486511\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN 10: 0241486513\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Isabel Wilkerson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32777821585511,"sku":"","price":26.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0282\/6066\/3399\/products\/0241486513_0d17d209-c2f1-4558-94f1-90446d059067.jpg?v=1601396737","url":"https:\/\/www.shakespeareandsons.com\/products\/caste-the-lies-that-divide-us","provider":"Shakespeare \u0026 Sons Buchhandel GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
