The present study examines the emergence ideology and programme mobilisational strategies and spread of the Ambedkarite Movement against the backdrop of two important changes witnessed in the state since the early 1930s a wave of Dalit assertion and grass roots activism. It is based upon extensive field work and interviews with the initiators of the movement and generation of post independence educated upwardly mobile socially aware and politically conscious Dalits. While tracing the socio political history of the Ambedkarite Movement and conversion to Buddhism over 75 years the study presents an account of Dalits endeavour encounters and experiences. It provides an understanding of the impact of Ambedkar speeches and agitations on both Dalits and Indian politics and challenges the tenor of ritual power that defines Hinduism differently. While highlighting its considerable achievements evident in Rajasthan Dalit communities today the study also explores the reasons for the limitation of the Ambedkarite Movement. Perhaps the only scholarly work on Ambedkarite Movement in Rajasthan it will be of interest to sociologists anthropologists political scientists and all those engaged in Dalit Studies. 248 pp. Nº de ref. del artículo: 71694
