| Summary, etc |
This study attempts to unpack the existing frameworks in which caste is studied in the political sphere. Contrary to the popular notion that administrative categories that populate the census data and eventually welfare policies are based on objective truths, and that knowledge disseminated by means of formal education and vernacular press are value neutral, the fact is that the centralization of colonial state in early 18th century gave contemporary India its present epistemic distinctiveness and political anatomy. The process of enumeration in the census was principled on a religious and ideological reading of caste. In emptying caste of its economic character, colonial laws remolded the primary material verities into metrics of governance. – Reproduced |
