Reseña del libro

Every society has their own social rules, norms, regulations and social orders for their smooth functioning of the society. Indian traditional society has its own Hindu social order with hierarchy of varna or caste system emerging from 'Deva Vani' (divinely ordained) enshrined in the Vedas. The framework of the Hindu social order is formed by the Brahmins. They established their position at the top category in the society and others at the bottom category forever. In fact, the position of these castes in the socio-economic and power hierarchy is, by and large, analogous to that in the ritual or religious hierarchy through an asymmetrical caste in nature that are more distinctively visible even today. Indian people practice various rules in their everyday life. But there is lack of unique and single universal social order and system for the better functioning of the society. Social order from the times of Indian traditional society till the twenty first century, the society is functioning according to Hindu social order. There is gradation in the system creating hierarchy and discrimination of the individuals at the bottom. Since Indian society is divided into numerous castes and sub castes, numbering roughly over four thousands, besides the sizable number of tribes and other religious communities. So here it becomes imperative to understand the deprivation part. Therefore sociological analysis are broadly put within the perspective from below. Endorsing the views and experiences of those placed at the bottom of the social hierarchy. Ambedkar philosophy which tries to reconstruct Indian society as egalitarian one. He deconstructed the Hindu social order because certain collectivities of the Indian society were excluded and dominated by others for centuries. And reconstructed a new social order based on democratic values. Ambedkar says ideal society should be mobile, should be full of channels for conveying change taking place in one part to other parts.
