Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Dr. Ambedkar in his written statement before the Southborough Committee made the following submission: "... it must never be forgotten that the Congress is largely composed of men who are by design political Radicals and social Tories. Their chant is that the social and the political are two distinct things having no bearing on each other. To them the social and the political are two suits and can be worn one at a time as the season demands. Such a psychology has to be laughed at because it is too interested to be seriously taken into consideration either for acceptance or for rejection. As it pays to believe in it, it will die a hard death." 'Social Tories and Political Radicals' is a compilation of selected extracts from Volume 9, 5 and 1 of BAWS (Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Writings and Speeches) casting lights on the attitude of the Indian leaders towards the Untouchables and the problems of caste. Volume 9's 'What Congress and Gandhi have done to the Untouchables' intended by Dr. Ambedkar as a complete compendium of information regarding the movement of the Untouchables for political safeguards predominates the extracts selected for this book. From this compendium, the parts dealing the prominent patriots and the Congress party are separated and compiled in this book while the essential thoughts of Dr. Ambedkar are presented in another book series titled 'Mastering Babasaheb'. Gandhi, Vallabhbhai Patel, Jawaharlal Nehru, Bal Gangadhar Tilak, Annie Besant, Lala Lajpat Rai, Rajagopalachari, Vijaya Laxmi Pandit, Dadabhai Naoroji, Budruddin Tyabji, W.C. Bannerjee, Surrendranath Bannerjee and M.C. Rajah are exclusively dealt in this book. The compilation of 'Social Tories and Political Radicals' was done by A.B. Karl Marx Siddharthar. He is the author of 'UNCASTE' otherwise subtitled as 'Understanding Unmarriageability: The Way Forward To Annihilate Caste'.
