520 _aThis monograph analyses relevant parts of the proceedings of the Constituent Assembly during the years immediately following independence. It recaptures the spirit in which the problems of the Scheduled Castes were discussed by the found ing fathers and attempts to identify the political and religious nuances which coloured the deliberations of the Constituent Assembly. While it presents valuable data and a much needed historical perspective on the Scheduled Castes, this monograph is implicitly concerned with the social dynamics of Indian society. This is highly recommended to scholars, policy makers and activists who are concerned with the problems of the Scheduled Castes and the continuing inequalities in Indian society.
