Description
The central Gujarat region of western India is home to the entrepreneurial landowning Patel caste who have leveraged their rural dominance to become a powerful global diaspora of merchants, industrialists, and professionals. Investigating the Patels' intriguing ascent, Vinay Gidwani analyzes its broad implications for the nature of labour and capital worldwide.
