    Caste Class
    Castes are perceived as hereditary groups with a fixed ritual status according to Max Weber’s phraseology A person’s Class is based on social status, wealth and power acquired, level of education and other achievements.
    A person belonging to certain caste has to follow certain traditions, rituals and customs A person belonging to a certain class is not bound by customs, rituals or traditions.
    According to Sociologists such as Louis Dumon and Edmund Leach, caste is unique to the Indian sub-continent Classes are usually found in highly industrialized countries located in Europe, North America.
    Inter caste marriage leads to disputes between family members and members of different castes. If there is a marriage between two people belonging to different classes, it does not evoke any kind of disputes between members of different Class.
    The caste system does not promote democracy, since it severely limits equal opportunity to rise from an individual’s station Class system does not act as a hindrance to democracy, since classification is based on education, social status, and the work one does.
    Occupational mobility is one of the biggest banes of the Caste system. A person has to continue in the line of work of his ancestors irrespective of his interest, education and skills. Social class does not act as a hindrance to occupational mobility. A person belonging to any class can change his occupations based on his skills, education and interests.
    The caste system has religious connotations. The class system is not based on any religion.
    The Social Gap between people belonging to different castes is very wide which is not healthy for the overall progress of a nation The Social gap between people belonging to different classes is narrower when compared to the gap that is prevalent among people belonging to different Castes.
    Caste System is static The class system is dynamic
    There is no scope for vertical social mobility since the division is solely determined by birth. There is ample scope for vertical social mobility for people belonging to different classes since it is dependent on one’s abilities, nature of work, education, acquisition of wealth, status etc.
    Caste system works as a political force. Class system does not act as a political force.
    Cumulative Inequality is a distinctive feature of the caste system Dispersed Inequality is a distinctive feature of the class system
