Description
One 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 lowestsegment was treated as untouchable.A lecture that was never permitted to be given because of its incendiary nature, 'Annihilationof Caste' was self-published and immediately became the eye of a storm. Radically against theBrahmanical caste system and Hinduism, it argued for a society based on equal opportunitiesfor all.This volume posits Ambedkar's views on caste vis-à-vis Mahatma Gandhi's 'Harijans', andpresents the debate that the two luminaries engaged in. Read in this context, the book providesan overview of the problem of caste in India.
