Bridging two generations of scholarship on social inequality and
modern political forms, this book examines the political
philosophies of inclusion of subalterns/Dalits in Gramsci and
Ambedkar's political philosophies. It highlights the full range of
Gramsci's 'philosophy of praxis' and presents a more critical
appreciation of his thought in the study of South Asian societies.
Equally, Ambedkar's thought and philosophy is put to the forefront
and acquires a prominence in the international context. Overcoming
geographical, cultural and disciplinary boundaries, the book gives
relevance to the subalterns. Following the lead of Gramsci and
Ambedkar, the contributors are committed, apart from underscoring
the historical roots of subalternity, to uncovering the subalterns'
presence in social, economic, cultural, educational, literary,
legal and religious grounds. The book offers a renewed critical
approach to Gramsci and Ambedkar and expands on their findings in
order to offer a present-day political focus into one of the most
crucial themes of contemporary society. This book is of interest to
an interdisciplinary audience, including political theory,
post-colonial studies, subaltern studies, comparative political
philosophy, Dalit studies, cultural studies, South Asian studies
and the study of religions.
