In this article, I argue that the study of Sree Narayana Guru’s praxis forces us to question the popular understanding of ‘sanskritisation’ as mere imitation or emulation of ‘upper-caste’ rituals and practices for the purpose of seeking caste mobility. Given that the practice of caste has fundamentally been about exclusivity and denial, sanskritisation needs to be seen as a process that involved appropriating what had been denied due to exclusive caste privileges and the working of caste power. Sree Narayana Guru’s movement then, indicates that sanskritisation should be seen as a political act, which sought to challenge caste rules of the time.

There have been several contentions, characterisations and controversies over Max Weber’s treatment of history in his sociological writings both during his lifetime and after him as well. While some contest his contentions, others doubt the type of English translations made of his German writings. There is a need to take stock of and consolidate the sociologically relevant historical writings of Max Weber in proper perspective. The article raises the following two issues: (a) How can the claim be justified that Max Weber is one of the users of the comparative historical approach rather than one belonging to those using the evolutionary historical approach? (b) What are the specialities of his treatment of history in his methodology and substantive works? It is the specific intention of this article to consolidate the historical materials in the sociological writings of Weber so as to reconstruct his comparative historical approach as against positivist evolutionary history.

Sociological literature on urban poor struggles has produced a rich and vibrant scholarship on the mobilisations of urban poor groups for state welfare and resources. These struggles for basic services and resources essential to survival have been studied as ‘everyday politics’, the ‘politics of life’ and more broadly as ‘the politics of the poor’ or ‘politics of the governed’. Recent ethnographic research has revealed how these engagements are lived and experienced as ‘political work’ and not just as struggles or mobilisations. This discussion piece examines ‘political work’ detailing why these engagements are ‘political’ and why poor women reclaim their engagements with the State as ‘work’. Reviewing the literature on urban poor politics, citizenship and everyday politics, this piece examines how ‘political work’ reveals new forms of gendered work that reinforce the social reproductive roles of women even as women enter the public realm.
