About Louis Dumont and Hierarchical Opposition (Methodology and History in Anthropology, 9)

The work of Louis Dumont, who died in 1998, on India and modern individualism represented certain theoretical advances on the earlier structuralism of Claude Levi-Strauss. One such advance is Dumont’s idea of hierarchical opposition, which he proposed as a truer representation of indigenous ideologies than Levi-Strauss’s binary opposition. In this book the author argues that, although structuralism is often thought to have gone out of fashion, Dumont’s greater concern with praxis and agency makes his own version of structuralism more contemporary. The work of his followers and fellow travelers, as well as his own, indicates that hierarchical opposition is capable of taking structuralism in new and more realistic directions, reminding us that it has never been the preserve of Levi-Strauss alone.
