Beschreibung
India is justly famous for its complex social systems. Indian society is multifaceted to an extent perhaps unknown in any other of the worlds great civilizations. Virtually no generalization made about Indian society is valid for all of the nations multifarious groups. Comprehending the complexities of Indian social structure has challenged scholars and other observers over many decades. Under the leadership of Keshab Chandra Sen, the Brahmo Samaj organized education and welfare programmes for the untouchables. The Arya Samaj took greater interest in the upliftment of the untouchables. It started the Shuddhi movement in 1891 to reconvert the low caste Christian and Muslim converts back to Hindusim. It gave the untouchables the right to wear the sacred thread, the symbol of twice born status and also established educational institutions for the benefit of the untouchables. This book contains the structure of Indian society and the movements came from it. At the risk of sounding repetitive, one needs to reassert that the methodological problem of identifying and defining a social movement is fairly difficult.
