The Persistence of Caste: The Khairlanji Murders and India's Hidden Apartheid
Anand Teltumbde
While the caste system has been formally abolished under the Indian constitution, according to official statistics, every 18 minutes a crime is committed in India on a member of the dalit caste. This book explodes the myth that caste is a feudal relic, and argues that it has been well assimilated by both capitalist India and globalising India.
