  This book is an ethnographic study of a community of leather workers (the Rabi Das), and their transformations under global capitalism.
The author writes about the experiences of this community within the broader context of Indias economic liberalisation as well as in the local system of class and cultural relations in Bengali society.
Divided into three sections, the various chapters in the book provide a detailed analysis of the changing nature of their conditions of employment, education, lifestyle and survival strategies.
Despite six decades of efforts towards self-improvement, Ruchira Ganguly-Scrase uncovers the process of Rabi Das cultural and economic marginalisation.
This paperback edition also has a new Preface.
The text in the book is also interspersed with suitable area-maps (of Krishnagar/ Krishnanagar, inhabited by the Rabi Das community) and detailed tables based on the authors fieldwork.ISBN-9788125050520
