The constitutional protections in India have a moderately good effect on the lives of Scheduled Castes (SCs). Additionally, the social movements helped marginalized communities’ voices to some extent by empowering them to assert their rights and participate in the decision-making process. The Constitution has opened up political entry to underprivileged groups as a part of the decentralization movement at the grassroots level. Given an opportunity on par with other social groups, the SCs are showing more interest and are ahead in contesting in the elections with the support of their respective political parties. An effort has been made in this context to emphasize the problems and difficulties experienced by the elected SC members in local bodies in rural Telangana. The main objectives of the study are to examine the participation rates of SC representatives in Gram Sabha, analyse experiences in the political system in terms of gender and examine the discriminatory practices that elected officials have to deal with. The findings show that the SC representatives’ participation in Gram Sabha is weak and lacking in the decision-making process because of a lack of official backing and covert discrimination by the officials. Additionally, the SC representatives experience covert prejudice on the part of other castes. Since the bulk of the representatives are new to the election process, they are unaware of the duties that they are expected to carry out. According to the findings, the Gram Sabha should plan and finalize the village development plans in front of the people without the involvement of the local MLAs.
印度的宪法保护措施对在册种姓(SCs)的生活产生了适度的良好影响。此外,社会运动在一定程度上帮助了边缘化群体发出自己的声音,使他们有能力维护自己的权利并参与决策过程。作为基层权力下放运动的一部分,《宪法》为弱势群体打开了政治大门。由于获得了与其他社会群体同等的机会,在册种姓对选举表现出了更大的兴趣,并在各自政党的支持下领先参选。在此背景下,我们努力强调特兰甘纳邦农村地方机构中当选的在册种姓成员所遇到的问题和困难。本研究的主要目标是考察在册种姓代表在格拉姆萨博哈的参与率,从性别角度分析他们在政治 体制中的经历,并考察当选官员必须应对的歧视性做法。研究结果表明,由于缺乏官方支持和官员的隐性歧视,在册种姓代表在格拉姆萨博哈的参与程度很低,在决策过程中缺乏参与。此外,在册种姓代表还受到其他种姓的暗中歧视。由于大部分代表都是第一次参加选举,他们不了解自己应该履行的职责。根据调查结果,村务委员会应在人民面前规划并最终确定村庄发展计划,而无需当地工作重点的参与。

Recruitment of lower and middle castes remained a much-debated topic in Indian electoral politics till now. On the one hand, there was intense political debate between various castes, and on the other, there was judicial and administrative debate about social justice. Even though Ambedkar tried to use it as a method of social justice and state-sponsored social alleviation, because of its connection to identity politics, it quickly became a matter of electoral mobilization. Various parties that were attempting to win over various communities with their call for military recruitment eventually strayed from the real motivation behind that Ambedkarian demand. Lastly, since the turn of the twentieth century, the new political rhetoric of Hindutva has intriguingly transformed this call for military recruitment into a different cause. This article discusses how the demand for the Chamar Regiment and the Ahir Regiment in particular became the focal point of this debate for nearly a century.
在印度的选举政治中,中低种姓的招聘问题至今仍是一个备受争议的话题。一方面是不同种姓之间激烈的政治辩论,另一方面是关于社会正义的司法和行政辩论。尽管安贝德卡试图将其作为实现社会正义和国家支持的社会救济的方法,但由于其与身份政治的联系,它很快就成为了一个选举动员问题。各政党试图通过征兵来赢得不同社区的支持,但最终偏离了安贝德卡尔要求背后的真正动机。最后,自 20 世纪之交以来,印度教的新政治言论将征兵要求转变成了另一种事业,令人玩味。本文将讨论对查马尔军团,尤其是阿希尔军团的需求是如何在近一个世纪的时间里成为这场争论的焦点的。

From the last quarter of the eighteenth century, the East India Company slowly acquired the area which is now called Uttar Pradesh. Territories were acquired from different powers by the company were initially kept under Bengal Province. However, in 1833 these, areas were separated and a new province called North-Western Provinces was created. Again, after the annexation of Oudh, this province came to be called in 1877 as North-Western Provinces. The United Provinces of Agra and Oudh was changed to United Provinces in 1902 which later became present Uttar Pradesh. Colonial rule wanted to control the knowledge systems of the colonized. The epistemology and knowledge systems produced by the colonial state sought to create the feeling of interiority among the colonized people. Education is one such area through which the colonial state wanted to justify their rule. The British argued that Indians were inferior and justified their monopoly of all higher posts. They, further, pointed out that untouchability, rigid caste system are some of the reasons for inferiority. In this article, I would like to discuss the colonial state policy towards education of lower castes and depressed classes in Kumaon division of United Provinces of British India. I argue that although the British professed that it wanted to educate all people, yet in practice the colonial state gave in to the caste prejudices of the society and also because of its own ambivalent policy towards depressed classes. Doms constitute majority of Dalit community in Kumaon division of United Provinces from whom Shilpakar community emerged gradually.
从十八世纪最后一个季度开始,东印度公司慢慢获得了现在被称为北方邦的地区。东印度公司从不同势力处获得的领土最初都归属于孟加拉省。但在 1833 年,这些地区被分离出来,成立了一个名为西北省的新省。1877 年,在吞并乌德后,该省又被称为西北省。1902 年,阿格拉和乌德联合省更名为联合省,后来成为现在的北方邦。殖民统治希望控制殖民地的知识体系。殖民地国家建立的认识论和知识体系试图在殖民地人民中制造内在感。教育就是殖民国家为其统治辩护的一个领域。英国人认为印度人低人一等,并为他们垄断所有高级职位辩护。他们还进一步指出,贱民制度、僵化的种姓制度是印度人劣等的部分原因。在这篇文章中,我想讨论英属印度联合省库缅地区的殖民国家对低种姓和贫困阶层的教育政策。我认为,虽然英国人声称要教育所有的人,但实际上殖民地国家屈服于社会的种姓偏见,同时也因为其自身对贫困阶层采取了矛盾的政策。多姆人是联合省库缅地区达利特人社区的主体,希尔帕卡人社区就是在多姆人的基础上逐渐形成的。

Conceptualizing the Paradigm Shift from Prosocial Communism to Violent Communism and Pogroms of Dalits to Adivasi Guerrillas in India: A Systematic Literature Review 印度从亲社会共产主义到暴力共产主义以及从达利特人大屠杀到阿迪瓦西游击队的范式转变的概念化:系统文献综述

In India, the violent communist movement encompasses 70 districts of 10 states with substantial support from the marginalized people with arms in their hands. Why does the transformation process from a communist political party to violent communism take place in India? How does communism in its violent form still survive in India? These questions are addressed by reviewing the literature on the left-wing extremist movement in India from 2005 to 2022. It is found that the violent version of communism has largely succeeded in the domain of suppressing caste-based exploitations of the landless lower castes and gaining support from the indigenous tribes on land and forest-related issues. Therefore, the destination of communism in India is an important eventuality to study its survival strategies, diverse forms and processes.
在印度,暴力共产主义运动覆盖了 10 个邦的 70 个地区,得到了手持武器的边缘化人群的大力支持。为什么印度会发生从共产党到暴力共产主义的转变过程?暴力形式的共产主义如何在印度继续生存?通过回顾 2005 年至 2022 年有关印度左翼极端主义运动的文献,我们对这些问题进行了探讨。研究发现,暴力版的共产主义在很大程度上成功地压制了对无地低等种姓的种姓剥削,并在土地和森林相关问题上获得了土著部落的支持。因此,共产主义在印度的去向是研究其生存策略、不同形式和过程的一个重要事件。

Caste and Gender Politics: An Understanding of Dalit Consciousness in the Poems of Contemporary Dalit Writers 种姓与性别政治:从当代达利特作家的诗歌中理解达利特意识

Dalit women face endemic gender and caste discrimination and violence as a result of extreme unequal social, economic, and political power equations because of their vulnerability at the bottom of India’s caste, class, and gender hierarchies. Their socio-economic weakness and lack of political power, combined with the main risk factors of being Dalit and female, heighten their exposure to potentially violent Circumstances, hindering their rights to live with dignity and reach their full potential. The poems of three contemporary Dalit feminist writers, namely, Meena Kandasamy (1984–), Aruna Gogulamanda (1970–) and Sukirtharani (1973–) appear to be an encyclopaedia of painful catalogues, some heard and some experienced. Their witty arguments and unbashful and uncompromising writing style not only unleash the power/caste/sexual politics at hand but also suggest ways of emancipation for women and an era of liberation for them. The article aims to uncover the intersectionality of caste and gender—through a reading of select poets’ works—exposing the exploitation, oppression, violence and marginalization that reflects on the Dalit female body inhibiting from and affecting the physical, psychological, economic and social dimensions. It will do so by employing various post-modern critical scholarships on caste/gender politics, politics of the body, identity, self, subjectivity, agency, and its attendant issues. Thus, by using the female body as an ingress the article through critical analysis of the select poems will showcase a paradigm shift in understanding the self via body hence suggesting ways for Dalit women’s agency/emancipation. By highlighting the experiences of marginalized female voices, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of gender dynamics, caste politics within Indian society, ultimately prompting discussions on the need for caste and gender equity and inclusivity in contemporary India.
达利特妇女由于处于印度种姓、阶级和性别等级制度的最底层,在社会、经济和政治权力方面处于极端不平等的地位,因而面临着普遍的性别和种姓歧视及暴力。她们的社会经济地位低下,缺乏政治权力,再加上身为贱民和女性的主要风险因素,使她们更容易受到潜在暴力环境的影响,从而阻碍了她们有尊严地生活和充分发挥自身潜力的权利。三位当代达利特女权作家米娜-坎达萨米(Meena Kandasamy,1984-)、阿鲁娜-戈古拉曼达(Aruna Gogulamanda,1970-)和苏凯拉妮(Sukirtharani,1973-)的诗歌似乎是一部痛苦目录的百科全书,有些是耳闻的,有些是亲身经历的。她们诙谐幽默的论点和毫不掩饰、毫不妥协的写作风格,不仅揭示了当前的权力/种姓/性政治,还提出了妇女解放的途径和妇女解放的时代。本文旨在通过对部分诗人作品的阅读,揭示种姓与性别的交叉性,揭示达利特女性身体所遭受的剥削、压迫、暴力和边缘化,从生理、心理、经济和社会层面对其产生抑制和影响。为此,本研究将采用各种后现代批判性学术研究方法,探讨种姓/性别政治、身体政治、身份、自我、主观性、能动性及其相关问题。因此,通过对所选诗歌的批判性分析,文章将以女性身体为切入点,展示通过身体理解自我的范式转变,从而为达利特妇女的代理权/解放提出建议。通过突出边缘化女性的经历,本研究有助于加深对印度社会中性别动态和种姓政治的理解,最终促使人们讨论当代印度种姓和性别平等及包容性的必要性。

Various forms of protest such as rail-road roko and election boycott have been displayed by the Kurmi community to show their strength and legitimacy in their claim for Scheduled tribe status. By analysing pre-independence census data by British anthropologists, their study of culture and tribal way of life, and current socio-economic and political standing, the authors have attempted to trace the location of Kurmis (Mahto) of Chotanagpur region in the indigeneity discourse and their claim for ST status.
库尔米人采取了各种形式的抗议活动,如 "铁路抗议"(rail-road roko)和抵制选举,以显示他们要求获得在册部落地位的力量和合法性。通过分析英国人类学家在独立前的人口普查数据、他们对文化和部落生活方式的研究以及当前的社会经济和政治地位,作者试图追溯乔塔那格浦尔地区的库尔米人(马赫托人)在土著话语中的位置以及他们对在册部落地位的要求。

This article investigates the process of the domestication of ideas by the Dalit intellectuals leading to its radical assertion of ‘Dalit Consciousness’. A chance encounter with an article about the US Black Panthers in the Time magazine proved to be a wake-up call for the subalterns in India. The present paper centres around the ideologies adopted by the Dalit Panthers, the syncretism of ideas of B. R. Ambedkar, Jyotirao Phule and Karl Marx. Delving deeper into Ambedkar’s American academic background and his intellectual odyssey at Columbia University during the Harlem Renaissance, the article will look into the politics of emancipation, exchanges and similarities of both the intellectuals, W. E. B. Du Bois and B. R. Ambedkar as well as the influence of the Black Power movement on the Dalit movement and its literature. Tracing the trajectory of intersectional political and ideological diffusion between the two movements, this article, in addition to the above observations, will draw parallels by underlining the texts and themes of oppression present in both caste and race.
本文探讨了达利特知识分子将思想驯化并最终激进地提出 "达利特意识 "的过程。一次偶然的机会,在《时代》杂志上看到了一篇关于美国黑豹党的文章,这为印度的次贱民敲响了警钟。本文围绕 "贱民黑豹 "所采用的意识形态,即 B. R. Ambedkar、Jyotirao Phule 和卡尔-马克思思想的融合。文章将深入探讨安贝德卡的美国学术背景和他在哈莱姆文艺复兴时期在哥伦比亚大学的思想历程,研究解放政治、W. E. B. Du Bois 和 B. R. Ambedkar 这两位知识分子之间的交流和相似之处,以及黑人力量运动对贱民运动及其文学的影响。本文将追溯这两个运动之间政治和意识形态交叉传播的轨迹,除上述观点外,还将通过强调种姓和种族中存在的压迫文本和主题,得出相似之处。
