  • A South Asian Movement's Social
    Justpeace Prospects for Peace-building and Worldview Tolerance: A South Asian Movement’s Social Construction of Justice A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at George Mason University By Jeremy A. Rinker Master of Arts University of Hawaii, 2001 Bachelor of Arts University of Pittsburgh, 1995 Director: Dr. Daniel Rothbart, Professor of Conflict Resolution Institute for Conflict Analysis and Resolution Spring Semester 2009 George Mason University Fairfax, VA Copyright: 2009 Jeremy A. Rinker All Rights Reserved ii DEDICATION This dissertation is dedicated to the many named and unnamed dalits who have endured the suffering and humiliation of centuries of social ostracism, discrimination, and structural violence. Their stories, though largely unheard, provide both an inspiration and foundation for creating social justice. It is my hope that in telling and analyzing the stories of dalit friends associated with the Trailokya Bauddha Mahasangha, Sahayak Gana (TBMSG), both new perspectives and a sense of hope about the ideal of justpeace will be fostered. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank all those that provided material, emotional, and spiritual support to me during the many stages of this dissertation work (from conceptualization to completion). The writing of a dissertation is a lonely process and those that suffer most during such a solitary process are invariably the writer’s family. Therefore, special thanks are in order for my wife Stephanie and son Kylor. Thank you for your devotion, understanding, and encouragement throughout what was often a very difficult process. I will always regret the many Saturday trips to the park that I missed, but I promise to make them up as best I can as I begin my new life as Dr.

DHARMAJI KHARAT Sr. Faculty in English P.V.P., Sndt Women’s University, Juhu, Santacruz (West), MUMBAI -49 (MS) INDIA Caste is inner and hidden discrimination whereas race is outer and open discrimination. Inner and hidden discrimination is more dangerous than the open one. Discrimination of gender is the experience of all families. Every person has concern for and together all people can take a firm stand against the cases of gender discrimination happens in any part of the country and the world. But, caste discrimination is the problem of particular groups of people and it can’t be the experience of all. Therefore, only the victimized and marginal groups of people come together to fight against caste discrimination happens. People belonging to non SC/ST do not standby the sufferer. On the contrary, many educated stupid believe in caste system. Starting from M.K. Gandhi to every Indian, we, the Indians have open heartedly supported the mission of Dr.Nelson Mandela. Because we are blacks and we knew that Mandela fights for equality so we supported. But, the same higher class black feels proud and happy to exploit other backward class blacks in their own country. Blacks are everywhere throughout the world therefore, almost all the nations representative have supported the mission of Mandela. Caste-system exists in India and Dr. B.R.

Stroud Abstract This article explores the contours of the Indian pragmatist Bhimrao Ambedkar and his reconstruction of Buddhism in the 1950s. As a student of John Dewey at Columbia University, young Ambedkar was heavily influenced by the pragmatist ideas of democracy and reconstruction. Throughout his life he would continue to evoke Dewey’s words and ideas in his fight against caste injustice in India. This article explores the possibility that Ambedkar could have been influenced by Dewey’s work, “Creative Democracy—The Task Before Us.” In exploring the intriguing evidence that points toward such an influence, Ambedkar’s The Buddha and His Dhamma emerges as a site of pragmatist reconstruction of Buddhism and as a personal democratic guide to action.
