Book excerpt: The present study seeks to analyze the role, response and contribution of the Indian National Congress to the cause of Dalits from 1921 through 1947. During the early stages, the Congress regarded the Dalit problem similar to the problems of sati, widowhood, child marriage, female infanticide etc. Mahatma Gandhi, however, took the problem seriously and considered untouchability as a monster , a blot or a sin . The new thing which the Mahatma included in the Congress approach had religious Hinduite dimension which resulted in turning of the Congress approach into a patronalistic approach .It should, however, be mentioned that after the advent of Mahatma Gandhi the caste-communal dimensions and the political aspects of the problem were never accepted by the Congress, which were adhered to by the radical Dalit leadership. This led to a serious antagonism between the two parties in which the Congress defeated the radical Dalit leadership by forcing them to accept the Poona Act (1932). In order to check the Dalit leadership, the Congress launched a massive campaign for Dalit upliftment, namely the Harijan Movement on the basis of their patronalistic approach. This book deals with this aspect of the problem and much else besides.

Book Synopsis Faces of Discrimination in Higher Education in India by : Samson K. Ovichegan
Download or read book Faces of Discrimination in Higher Education in India written by Samson K. Ovichegan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-02-11 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book illuminates the experiences of a set of students and faculty who are members of the Dalit caste – commonly known as the ‘untouchables’ – and are relatively ‘successful’ in that they attend or are academics at a prestigious university. The book provides a background to the study, exploring the role of caste and its enduring influence on social relations in all aspects of life. The book also contains a critical account of the current experiences of Dalit students and faculty in one elite university setting – the University of Shah Jahan (pseudonym). Drawing on a set of in-depth semi-structured interviews, the empirical study that is at the centre of this book explores the perceptions of staff and students in relation to the Quota policy and their experiences of living, working and studying in this elite setting. The data chapters are organised in such a way as to first explore the faculty views. The experiences of students are then examined with a focus on the way in which their caste is still an everyday part of how they are sometimes ‘othered’. Also, a focus on female Dalit experiences attempts to capture the interconnecting aspects of abject discrimination in their university life. Faces of Discrimination in Higher Education in India explores: critical exploration of the Quota System policy and related social justice issues; faculty voices: Quota, caste and discrimination; students’ perceptions and experiences of the Quota policy; being a ‘female Dalit’ student; positioning caste relations and the Quota policy: a critical analysis. This study will be of interest to educational sociologists examining policies in education and analysts of multicultural and South Asian studies. It will also steer pertinent discussions on equality and human rights issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The Mahatma Misunderstood” studies the relationship between the production of novels in late-colonial India and nationalist agitation promoted by the Indian National Congress. The volume examines the process by which novelists who were critically engaged with Gandhian nationalism, and who saw both the potentials and the pitfalls of Gandhian political strategies, came to be seen as the Mahatma’s standard-bearers rather than his loyal opposition.
Book Synopsis Dalits in Neoliberal India by : Clarinda Still
Download or read book Dalits in Neoliberal India written by Clarinda Still and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India’s economic growth has brought opportunities for many but to what extent has it benefitted its ethnically-shaped underclass: the Dalits? Have Dalits fared better in a neoliberal India or have structural economic and social changes served to magnify Dalit disadvantage? This volume offers a varied picture of Dalit experience in different states in contemporary India. The essays draw on factual research in rural and urban areas by experts in the field. With case studies ranging from Dalit entrepreneurs in Bhopal to housewives in Tamil Nadu to ex-millworkers in Mumbai, the book contends that radically progressive change and advance is attended by discrimination and exclusion, as well as surprising new areas of stigma. With contributions by political scientists, anthropologists, sociologists, and economists, the volume will be key reading for scholars and students of Dalit and subaltern studies, sociology, political science, and economics.

Book excerpt: This second, revised and enlarged edition looks back at the aspirations and struggle of the marginalised Dalit masses and looks forward to a new humanity based on equality, social justice and human dignity. Within the context of Dalit emancipation, it explores the social, economic and cultural content of Dalit transformation in modern India. These articles, by some of the foremost researchers in the field, are presented in four parts: Part I deals with the historical material on the origin and development of untouchability in Indian civilisation. Part II contests mainstream explanations and shows that the Dalit vision of Indian society is different from that of the upper castes. Part III offers a critique of the Sanskritic perspective of traditional Indian society, and fieldwork-based portraits of the Hinduisation of Adivasis in Gujarat, Dalit patriarchy in Maharashtra and Dalit power politics in Uttar Pradesh. Part IV concentrates on the economic condition of the Dalits.

Download or read book Dalits written by Anand Teltumbde and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-08-19 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive introduction to dalits in India (who comprise over one-sixth of the country’s population) from the origins of caste system to the present day. Despite a plethora of provisions for affirmative action in the Indian Constitution, dalits are largely excluded from the mainstream except for a minuscule section. The book traces the multifarious changes that befell them during the colonial period and their development thereafter under the leadership of Babasaheb Ambedkar in the centre of political arena. It looks at hitherto unexplored aspects of the degeneration of the dalit movement during the post-Ambedkar period, as well as salient contemporary issues such as the rise of the Bahujan Samaj Party, dalit capitalism, the occupation of dalit discourse by NGOs, neoliberalism and its impact, and the various implicit or explicit emancipation schemas thrown up by them. The work also discusses ideology, strategy and tactics of the dalit movement; touches upon one of the most contentious issues of increasing divergence between the dalit and Marxist movements; and delineates the role of the state, both colonial and post-colonial, in shaping dalit politics in particular ways. A tour de force, this book brings to the fore many key contemporary concerns and will be of great interest to students, scholars and teachers of politics and political economy, sociology, history, social exclusion studies and the general reader.
Book Synopsis Dalit Theology and Christian Anarchism by : Revd Dr Keith Hebden
Download or read book Dalit Theology and Christian Anarchism written by Revd Dr Keith Hebden and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2013-06-28 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A second generation of emerging Dalit theology texts is re-shaping the way we think of Indian theology and liberation theology. This book is a vital part of that conversation. Taking post-colonial criticism to its logical end of criticism of statism, Keith Hebden looks at the way the emergence of India as a nation state shapes political and religious ideas. He takes a critical look at these Gods of the modern age and asks how Christians from marginalised communities might resist the temptation to be co-opted into the statist ideologies and competition for power. He does this by drawing on historical trends, Christian anarchist voices, and the religious experiences of indigenous Indians. Hebden's ability to bring together such different and challenging perspectives opens up radical new thinking in Dalit theology, inviting the Indian Church to resist the Hindu fundamentalists labelling of the Church as foreign by embracing and celebrating the anarchic foreignness of a Dalit Christian future.

Book Synopsis Our Struggle for Emancipation: The Dalit Movement in Hyderabad State, 1906-1953 by : P R Venkatswamy
Download or read book Our Struggle for Emancipation: The Dalit Movement in Hyderabad State, 1906-1953 written by P R Venkatswamy and published by Hyderabad Book Trust. This book was released on 2020-02-02 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dalit Movement in Hyderabad State,, 1906-1953, P.R.Venkatswamy, 648 pages, hard case, Price Rs. 500/- ISBN : 978-81-907377-9- This is the iconic book which details the history of the Dalit movement in Hyderabad State from 1906 till about 1953. It spans one of the most exciting periods of Hyderabad’s history – the Nizam’s rule, opposition to it from the Congress and Andhra Mahasabha, the rise of small-scale organizations of the dalit castes, their metamorphosis into a full-blown anti-Hindu movement, the rise of the Razakars and the take-over of Hyderabad State by the Indian Union. The movements were not just about the reform of caste cultures as much as about asserting the rights of the dalit castes and the mechanisms of upper caste domination. The Hyderabad movement and perspectives were closely associated with Ambedkar and opposition to Congress and the Gandhians. Venkatswamy himself was an active participant and the book is a fascinating ringside view of the events of the times.

Book Synopsis Change and Mobility in Contemporary India by : Sobin George
Download or read book Change and Mobility in Contemporary India written by Sobin George and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2019-09-25 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies caste and community dynamics in India and offers a critical view of social mobility from below. Building on the theories of the eminent sociologist M N Srinivas, the essays in this volume reformulate the debate on caste as they document the changing inter-caste dynamics and caste-based violence in contemporary India. The volume showcases the new language of change in caste relations, articulated mostly from the perspective of the marginalised as experiences, differences, contestations, assertions and as citizenship rights. It focusses on the clash between traditional structures of inequality and the ideals of equality and justice in a liberal, democratic India. It also highlights the persistence of caste and endogamy and the interlocking nature of caste, gender and disability, struggles of ethnic groups and informal workers in the market economy, discrimination in the labour market and the dissolution of dissent in the public sphere. With contributions from leading scholars of social change and development in India and abroad, this volume will be useful for scholars and researchers of sociology, social anthropology, minority and subaltern studies, and development studies.
Book Synopsis Gendering Caste Through a Feminist Lens by : Uma Chakraborty
Download or read book Gendering Caste Through a Feminist Lens written by Uma Chakraborty and published by Popular Prakashan. This book was released on 2003 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the crucial linkages between caste and gender, undertaken, perhaps, for the first time, Uma Chakravarti unmasks the mystique of consensus in the workings of the caste system to reveal the underlying violence and coercion that perpetuate a severely hierarchical and unequal society. The subordination of women and the control of female sexuality are crucial to the maintenance of the caste system, creating what feminist scholars have termed brahmanical patriarchy. She discusses the range of patriarchal practices within the larger framework of sexuality, labour and access to material resources, and also focuses on the centrality of endogamous marriages that maintain the system. Erudite yet accessible, this book enables the reader to understand the interface of gender and caste and to participate in its critical analysis.
