Review (9) of Dube, Untouchable Pasts by Ghanshyam Shah in EPW (original) (raw)
2002, *Economic and Political Weekly*
Please download to read: A somewhat strange and "scholastic" review, where the reviewer wants the author to write a book of his (reviewer's) choosing: "political" rather than "interpretive", even if the politics desired had little connection with the subject of the study.

Review (10) of Dube, *Untouchable Pasts* in *American Historical Review* by Karen Leonard
*American Historical Review*, 1999
A terribly curious -- or curiously terrible -- review of *Untouchable Pasts* (and that too in a flagship journal). Rather misses the ethnographic and methodological, critical and conceptual, anthropological-historical and theoretical thrust of the work. There was a great rejoinder, also in *AHR, by a fellow-traveller a little later. But, then, all this was so long ago.
