Religion in India: Tolerance and Segregation

Indians say it is important to respect all religions, but major religious groups see little in common and want to live separately 

 

B)   Global Castes: Ethnic and Racial Studies: Vol 0, No 0 (tandfonline.com)   https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/01419870.2021.1924394

 

Caste has been thought of as an institution intimately tied to the Indian past and present. However, caste as a, social system invested in purity, pollution, endogamy, hierarchy, and inflexibility locked in the rigidity of birth, is found in major societies across the world. Yet, caste has not received the desired attention outside India. Nor it has become a social, economic, and political concern of the world. Everyday caste oppression is indicative of the gross human rights violations wrought upon Dalit and other caste oppressed groups, not least in India, but globally. Drawing from caste studies in south Asia, Africa, Latin America, and North America, this paper inaugurates pioneering inquiry into caste discrimination as a global human rights concern. By complificating, to complicate and facilitate the conduits of hierarchical societies, it posits the importance of global caste theory as a way to synthesize the experiences of outcastes of each society.

Dear Dr Sastry avare,

Only one of these two is a survey report. 

The second is not. 

The second is a  'paper' in the form of  'inquiry' that claims itself to be 'pioneering' in taking the caste issue beyond India. (Though this kind of wrong  use of  'caste' as a term for discrimination that leads to non-Indians see caste in India as the same as the discriminations in their own societies is not newly being done in this 'paper'. 

In any case, this is not a survey report as the first one. 

Let us not mix up things and add to the already existing confusions.
