Description

About The Book: The Hindu Jajmani System by William Henricks Wiser examines the traditional socio-economic structure of Indian villages, where different castes provided specialized services in exchange for goods and support from landowning families. This system ensured interdependence among villagers through hereditary occupations. Wiser’s study highlights its role in sustaining village economies, social hierarchy, and cultural continuity. His work remains a foundational text in Indian anthropology, offering insights into caste-based service exchange and rural social organization.
