The volume represents the individual voices of the editors and contributors, who are eminent academics and activists, and situates Dalit life amidst all the major changes that have occurred over the last three decades. It aims to provide a more holistic approach to studying the community's socio-economic and political life in the new millennium and adds to the existing literature on Dalit politics, focusing especially on the changes that are taking place in the realm of electoral politics, popular culture, political economy, ideological worldview, and representation, among others"-- 0aDalits 0aPolitical activity 0aSocial conditions 0vHistory 0aEconomic conditions 0zIndia1 aPai, Sudhaeeditor1 aBabu, D.
