OverviewOne of the most inflammatory writings of Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar, 'Annihilation of Caste' remains a strident indictment of the Indian society and its social stratification where the lowest segment was treated as untouchable. A lecture that was never permitted to be given because of its incendiary nature, 'Annihilation of Caste' was self-published and immediately became the eye of a storm. Radically against the Brahmanical caste system and Hinduism, it argued for a society based on equal opportunities for all. This volume posits Ambedkar's views on caste vis-à-vis Mahatma Gandhi's 'Harijans', and presents the debate that the two luminaries engaged in. Read in this context, the book provides an overview of the problem of caste in India. Full Product DetailsAuthor: B.R. AmbedkarPublisher: Rupa Publications India Pvt Ltd.
