They come from one, almost the whole of whose public exertion has been one continuous struggle for liberty for the poor and for the oppressed and whose only reward has been a continuous shower of calumny and abuse from national journals and national leaders, for no other reason except that I refuse to join with them in performing the miracle—I will not say trick—of liberating the oppressed with the gold of the tyrant and raising the poor with the cash of the rich. —Dr. Ambedkar in ‘Annihilation of Caste’. z:\ ambedkar\vol-012\vol12-01.indd MK SJ+YS 19-10-2013>YS>20-12-2013 4 z:\ ambedkar\vol-012\vol12-01.indd MK SJ+YS 19-10-2013>YS>20-12-2013 5 DR.

Ambedkar, the Chief Architect of Indian Constitution was a scholar par excellence, a philosopher, a visionary, an emancipator and a true nationalist. He led a number of social movements to secure human rights to the oppressed and depressed sections of the society. He stands as a symbol of struggle for social justice. The Government of Maharashtra has done a highly commendable work of publication of volumes of unpublished works of Dr. Ambedkar, which have brought out his ideology and philosophy before the Nation and the world. In pursuance of the recommendations of the Centenary Celebrations Committee of Dr. Ambedkar, constituted under the chairmanship of the then Prime Minister of India, the Dr. Ambedkar Foundation (DAF) was set up for implementation of different schemes, projects and activities for furthering the ideology and message of Dr. Ambedkar among the masses in India as well as abroad. The DAF took up the work of translation and publication of the Collected Works of Babasaheb Dr. B.R. Ambedkar published by the Government of Maharashtra in English and Marathi into Hindi and other regional languages. I am extremely thankful to the Government of Maharashtra’s consent for bringing out the works of Dr. Ambedkar in English also by the Dr. Ambedkar Foundation. Dr. Ambedkar’s writings are as relevant today as were at the time when these were penned. He firmly believed that our political democracy must stand on the base of social democracy which means a way of life which recognizes liberty, equality and fraternity as the principles of life. He emphasized on measuring the progress of a community by the degree of progress which women have achieved. According to him if we want to maintain democracy not merely in form, but also in fact, we must hold fast to constitutional methods of achieving our social and economic objectives. He advocated that in our political, social and economic life, we must have the principle of one man, one vote, one value. There is a great deal that we can learn from Dr. Ambedkar’s ideology and philosophy which would be beneficial to our Nation building endeavor. I am glad that the DAF is taking steps to spread Dr. Ambedkar’s ideology and philosophy to an even wider readership. I would be grateful for any suggestions on publication of works of Babasaheb Dr. Ambedkar.

As in the last 11 volumes, in this 12th volume the writings of Dr. Ambedkar are full of intelligence and stimulus to the thinking mind. It is amazing to observe the spectrum of Dr. Ambedkar’s special concern for the humanity and equality, particularly, the various aspects which touch upon the democratic life in the modern society. In this volume, the articles which have been written by him occasionally find place together and how difficult it must have been to put these under one caption. No article is isolated. Every article of his is interlinked, may it be commerce or social antrhropology, English literature or English Constitution, the enquiry has a social orientation. The notes on various Acts and Laws which have been included in the volume also are the evidence of the kind that Dr. Ambedkar was a legal luminary and his basic thinking on jurisprudence. It is not only an advocacy but also analysis which is useful not only in the court-room but in the library of any intelligent student. I am confident that this volume would be received well by the students of Dr. Ambedkar’s thought and also by intelligent readers and members of public. I would like to place my appreciation of the work that has been gone into bringing out this volume and I am sure that the further volumes as planned will come through as scheduled.

These writings cover a variety of subjects. From the law of evidence to Dicey’s Law of the English Constitution and from Ancient Indian Commerce to the present day Parliamentary Democracy, it is a continuation of the philosophy of law as much as of various dimensions of its practice. These writings therefore are useful to show that in order to master a subject, there has to be a method in study. The method that Dr. Ambedkar followed was calculated to bring out concepts in their clarity, to appreciate reason of law in the perspective of its purpose so that in application law is fairly administered and correctly applied. Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar was a Constitutional lawyer. He taught jurisprudence and in his appreciation of the rule of law in society, sociological dimensions of law are visible.

  • Mountstuart Elphinstone: an Anthropologist Before Anthropology
    Mountstuart Elphinstone Mountstuart Elphinstone in South Asia: Pioneer of British Colonial Rule Shah Mahmoud Hanifi Print publication date: 2019 Print ISBN-13: 9780190914400 Published to Oxford Scholarship Online: September 2019 DOI: 10.1093/oso/9780190914400.001.0001 Mountstuart Elphinstone An Anthropologist Before Anthropology M. Jamil Hanifi DOI:10.1093/oso/9780190914400.003.0003 Abstract and Keywords During 1809, Mountstuart Elphinstone and his team of researchers visited the Persianate "Kingdom of Caubul" in Peshawar in order to sign a defense treaty with the ruler of the kingdom, Shah Shuja, and to collect information for use by the British colonial government of India. During his four-month stay in Peshawar, and subsequent two years research in Poona, India, Elphinstone collected a vast amount of ethnographic information from his Persian-speaking informants, as well as historical texts about the ethnology of Afghanistan. Some of this information provided the material for his 1815 (1819, 1839, 1842) encyclopaedic "An Account of the Kingdom of Caubul" (AKC), which became the ethnographic bible for Euro-American writings about Afghanistan. Elphinstone's competence in Farsi, his subscription to the ideology of Scottish Enlightenment, the collaborative methodology of his ethnographic research, and the integrity of the ethnographic texts in his AKC, qualify him as a pioneer anthropologist—a century prior to the birth of the discipline of anthropology in Europe. Virtually all Euro-American academic and political writings about Afghanistan during the last two-hundred years are informed and influenced by Elphinstone's AKC. This essay engages several aspects of the ethnological legacy of AKC. Keywords: Afghanistan, Collaborative Research, Ethnography, Ethnology, National Character For centuries the space marked ‘Afghanistan’ in academic, political, and popular discourse existed as a buffer between and in the periphery of the Persian and Persianate Moghol empires.

  • In the Name of Krishna: the Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town
    In the Name of Krishna: The Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Sugata Ray IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Frederick M. Asher, Advisor April 2012 © Sugata Ray 2012 Acknowledgements They say writing a dissertation is a lonely and arduous task. But, I am fortunate to have found friends, colleagues, and mentors who have inspired me to make this laborious task far from arduous. It was Frederick M. Asher, my advisor, who inspired me to turn to places where art historians do not usually venture. The temple city of Khajuraho is not just the exquisite 11th-century temples at the site. Rather, the 11th-century temples are part of a larger visuality that extends to contemporary civic monuments in the city center, Rick suggested in the first class that I took with him. I learnt to move across time and space. To understand modern Vrindavan, one would have to look at its Mughal past; to understand temple architecture, one would have to look for rebellions in the colonial archive. Catherine B. Asher gave me the gift of the Mughal world – a world that I only barely knew before I met her. Today, I speak of the Islamicate world of colonial Vrindavan. Cathy walked me through Mughal mosques, tombs, and gardens on many cold wintry days in Minneapolis and on a hot summer day in Sasaram, Bihar. The Islamicate Krishna in my dissertation thus came into being.

The battle of Plassey (1757) followed by that of Buxar (1764) gave the Company access to the revenues of the subas of Bengal, Bihar and Orissa and a subsequent edge in the contest for paramountcy in Hindustan. Control over revenues resulted in a gradual shift in the orientation of the Company‟s agenda – from commerce to land revenue – with important consequences. This chapter will trace the development of the Company‟s rise to power in Bengal, the articulation of commercial policies in the context of Mercantilism that developed as an informing ideology in Europe and that found limited application in India by some of the Company‟s officials.

The Portuguese, Dutch, French and the English came to India to promote trade and commerce. The English who established the East-India Co. in 1600, gradually consolidated their hold in different parts of India. They had very capable men like Sir. Thomas Roe, Colonel Close, General Smith, Elphinstone, Grant Duff etc . The English shrewdly exploited the disunity among the Indian rulers. They were very diplomatic in their approach. Due to their far sighted policies, the English were able to expand and consolidate their rule in Maharashtra. 2 The Company’s government had trapped most of the Maratha rulers in Subsidiary Alliances and fought three important wars with Marathas over a period of 43 years (1775 -1818). 1.2 POLITICAL CONDITIONS BEFORE THE BRITISH CONQUEST : The Company’s Directors sent Lord Wellesley as the Governor- General of the Company’s territories in India, in 1798.

  • The Evolution of the Professional Structure in Modern India : Older and New Professions in a Changing
    C/83-5 THE EVOLUTION OF THE PROFESSIONAL STRUCTURE IN MODERN INDIA: OLDER AND NEW PROFESSIONS IN A CHANGING SOCIETY Rajat Kanta Ray Professor and Head Department of History Presidency College Calcutta, India Center for International Studies Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139 August 1983 ,At Foreword This historical study by Professor Rajat Ray is one of a series which examines the development of professions as a key to understanding the different patterns in the modernization of Asia. In recent years there has been much glib talk about "technology transfers" to the Third World, as though knowledge and skills could be easily packaged and delivered. Profound historical processes were thus made analogous to shopping expeditions for selecting the "appropriate technology" for the country's resources. The MIT Center for International Studies's project on the Modernization of Asia is premised on a different sociology of knowledge. Our assumption is that the knowledge and skills inherent in the modernization processes take on meaningful historical significance only in the context of the emergence of recognizable professions, which are communities of people that share specialized knowledge and skills and seek to uphold standards. It would seem that much that is distinctive in the various ways in which the different Asian societies have modernized can be found by seeking answers to such questions as: which were the earlier professions to be established, and which ones came later? What were the political, social

  • The Rise and Fall of the Maratha Power
    The Rise and Fall of the Maratha Power Modern Indian History Evolution of Peshwaship ❑ Shahu, grandson of Shivaji, had been a prisoner of Aurangzeb since 1689. ❑ Released in 1707 ❑ Soon, a civil war broke out between Shahu (Satara) & his aunt Tara Bai (Kolhapur), who had carried out an anti-Mughal struggle since 1700 in the name of her son Shivaji II after the death of her husband Raja Ram. Evolution of Peshwaship Continued… ❑ Arising out of the conflict between Shahu & his rival, a new system of Maratha government was evolved under the leadership of Balaji Vishwanath, the Peshwa of King Shahu. (1713) Balaji Vishwanath (1713-1720 C.E.) ❑ Balaji Vishwanath, a Brahmin, started his career as a small revenue official. He played a crucial role in the victory of Sahu over Tarabai in the Battle of Khed in 1707 C.E. ❑ After Sahu’s (1707-48 CE) coronation as Chatrapathi at Satara, Balaji was made his Sena Karte (organizer of forces) ❑ In 1713 C.E., he was raised to the post of Peshwa, this marked the domination of Peshwa supremacy in Maratha politics. ❑ Office of Peshwa become hereditary. From now onward Chatrapati become just a figure-head. ❑ He is rightly called as ‘Second founder of Maratha state’. Balaji Vishwanath (1713-1720 C.E.) Continued…. ❑ He was the 1st Maratha official to reach Delhi & involve in the internal matters of the Mughal rulers. ❑ He secured the release of Sahu’s mother.

  • Dalit Struggle and Subjugation Through the Centuries
    CONTEMPORARY LITERARY REVIEW INDIA CLRI – The journal that brings articulate writings for articulate readers. ISSN 2250-3366 eISSN 2394-6075 Dalit Struggle and Subjugation Through The Centuries Sharonee Dasgupta An independent researcher based in New Delhi. Abstract Our society is marked by its hypocrisy. On the one hand, our constitution guarantees equal rights to all its citizens yet the reality is just the contrary. Hierarchy continues to exist at every stratum in the society. Instead of bridging the gap in the society, this further feeds inequality on the basis of caste, class, gender, and what not. India has been portrayed as a land with unique and yet striking differences, the Indian national identity has been evolving over the past century. Keywords: Dalit literature, dalit struggle and subjugation, centuries old society, backward society, Indian society Introduction Indian culture is complex yet diverse. It is a potpourri resultant from influences across time and varied races. It is a huge overplay and crossover of ideas. Indian culture is a comprehensive idea of a pluralistic society, it has its wide display of languages, communities, caste, tribe and religion. Therefore India can be called a multi-religious, multi- ethnic and multi lingual society with its wide array of religions such as Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Sikhism, Buddhism, Zoroastrianism and Jainism and also twenty two major languages have been recognised by the Indian constitution apart from which there are many other languages. 1Yet poverty, gender discrimination, caste discrimination, communalism, hierarchy are the off shoots that are both unique and stark realities of the Indian culture. The constitution of this country drafted by Dr.

AMBEDKAR, A HERO OF INDIA'S INDEPENDENCE MOVEMENT Surinder Kumar Research Scholar, Department of Sociology, N.A.S.College Meerut(U.P.). ABSTRACT : The Contribution Of Dr B.R. Ambedkar In The Indian Freedom Struggle Dr Ambedkar was an extraordinary visionary and the most researcher pioneer of all in India. He was invloved in the battle against the old arrangement of casteism in India and battled for the unapproachable's ideal for equity. He was the principle engineer in building the Indian Constitution. Tragically the vast majority has ignored this incredible national legend and consider him as a pioneer who battled uniquely for Dalits. During the opportunity battle he had just begun his battle against casteism and was the main head then who began this battle. English managed distinctly for a long time however his battle was against 2000 to 3000 years in length casteism that ruled India. Furthermore, having a place with a lower standing himself he conquered every one of his obstacles and came as a first head from lower rank battling for having position free Indian culture. He was a legend as well as above than that. KEYWORDS : Indian English Novel , foreign countries , novelist. INTRODUCTION A true role model Dr. Ambedkar had a charming character. He was down to business second to none, who never enabled him to be influenced by theoretical thoughts and beliefs. He unequivocally accepted that political freedom can't guarantee either social solidarity or national mix without social equity.
