Material type:
ArticlePublisher: 2005Description: p.4881-885.Subject(s): Backward classes | Adivasi | Indigenous populations | Dalits | Capitalism | Globalization
In:
Economic and Political WeeklySummary: To ask dalits, women and others to simply "fight globalisation" at the cost of taking up real democratic demands, without carrying out a real analysis and understanding of how to deal with the situation they find themselves in, is a recipe for disaster. It may also be a recipe for keeping the leadership of any movement concentrated among a male, upper caste elite as well as one for becoming politically irrelevant. What is needed is an alternative not only to the present system, but also to the left and ecological challenges to it. -Reproduced.
