  • Dynamics of Inter-Religious and Inter-Caste Marriages in India Kumudin Das, K
    Dynamics of inter-religious and inter-caste marriages in India Kumudin Das, K. C. Das, T. K. Roy and P. K. Tripathy Abstract Caste and religion are integral components of Indian society since the time immemorial. These two systems create water tight compartment between communities and bring division, hatred and tension among various social groups. Marriages within the same caste and same religion is the norm of the Indian society. To think of marriages between different castes and different religions is a difficult and socially unacceptable proposition. Recently the process of modernization, democratization and development has brought lots of positive changes in Indian society. The major objectives of the present paper is to understand the spatial patterns and determinants of inter-caste and inter-religious marriages in India. The study uses the data of third round of National Family Health Survey( 2005-06)) having sample size of 43102 ever married couples. It is found that about 10 percent of the total marriages in India takes place between different castes while only 2.1 percent marriages are inter-religious. Key Words : Caste, religion, marriage, India Introduction The concept of caste system and religious discrimination are like a bane on the path of India's progress. For centuries Indian society has been divided on the basis of caste system and religion (Malhotra et al, 1977). The problem of caste system was so deep rooted that it took years for the Indians to come out of that idea. Even today also India is struggling to come out of this social menace. History reveals that efforts have been made by various social reformers and individuals whose name doesn't appear in the pages of history to make India free from the clutches of caste system, untouchability and race discrimination.

  • Does Affirmative Action Work? Evaluating India's Quota System
    Does Affirmative Action Work? Evaluating India's Quota System Alexander Lee∗ October 15, 2020 Abstract This paper examines two common critiques of ethnic quota policies in government hiring and education: that they do not benefit the target group, and that any benefits are unevenly distributed within the target group. It focuses on the effects of educational and hiring quotas for Other Backward Class (OBC) castes in India, using difference-in-difference and triple difference designs that take advantage of the gradual introduction of these quotas. The results provide little support for these critiques: affirmative action is associated with small increases in educational attainment and government employment among eligible age cohorts, though the increases in government employment may be a result of other social and political trends. These benefits extend even to poorer OBCs (though not the very poorest), and increase the chances of social contact between uneducated OBCs and government officials.1 ∗Department of Political Science, University of Rochester Thanks to Bill Ktai'pi, Jack Paine, Nishith Prakash, and seminar participants at the University of Connecticut, University of California Riverside and the American Political Science Association and Southern Political Science Association Annual Meetings for comments on the manuscript, and to Bridgette Wellington, Fred Arnold and K.S.
