The Kingdom Beyond Caste (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781258321338)

The Kingdom Beyond Caste by Liston Pope is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the caste system in India. The author delves into the history and origins of the caste system, examining its impact on Indian society and culture. He argues that the caste system has created a rigid social structure that has perpetuated inequality and discrimination for centuries. Pope also explores the role of religion in the caste system, examining how Hinduism has been used to justify and maintain the system. He argues that the true teachings of Hinduism promote equality and compassion, and that the caste system is a distortion of these teachings. The book also looks at the ways in which the caste system has been challenged and resisted over the years, from the efforts of social reformers to the struggles of the Dalit movement. Pope argues that these movements represent a powerful force for change in Indian society, and that they offer hope for a future beyond caste. Overall, The Kingdom Beyond Caste is a compelling and insightful examination of one of the most complex and controversial issues in Indian society. It offers a nuanced and thoughtful perspective on the caste system, and provides a valuable contribution to the ongoing debate about how to create a more just and equitable society in India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
