Advantages And Disadvantages Of Caste

The Caste system has aroused much controversy than any other feature of India’s society. Every day, Dalits are butchered, assaulted, abused, raped, lynched, shot or openly mutilated without considering any consequences of the offenders. The deaths of pregnant women who are not able to pay the bribes at government hospitals, some boys with eyes raised completely out for falling in love with a girl of a superior caste, and horrid stories of employees boiled to death because of spewing out arguments with the boss are continuously reported in mainstream newspapers. After years of democracy, the social structure stands to practice the caste system disregarding abolishment laws. Every international or national effort to abolish caste differentiation and segregation has been proven ineffective. The caste system of India is a deeply inculcated social problem requiring immense commitment domestically and internationally in understanding what has stopped the measures to get rid of this ancient system and what measures are needed to complete elimination of the system.

Equality can be interpreted in many ways, as we can see throughout the history such as racial, gender, and socio-economic equality. The Civil Rights emphasize that everybody should be treated equally and another view is the one represented in the story that everybody is equal. It is a completely out of reality to have a perfect society or no competition at all because how we could make advancements if the government was allowed to impose handicaps on the naturally gifted. The great thinkers would not be able to have new ideas because of the mental

Equal Opportunity has been an important facet of our society in America, particularly since Martin Luther King, Jr. gave his well-known speech, “I have a dream,” to our nation on August 28, 1963 (Historybits: Exploring True History). There have been many social programs started in order to make changes in

Often times our society confuses equality for equal. Although the words may look same and share similar letters, the two have completely different definitions. As an African American citizen living in America I feel like we focus much on being equal opposed to having equality. Thus when having equality you are giving equal opportunity and more door become available, despite when being equal you are just like everyone else. However, unlike the novel “Harrison Bergeron” by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. I would rather have equality than to be one hundred percent equal to someone else. When making everyone equal you take away ones individuality, creativity, and strengths; eliminating competition and status feuds. Yet in order for them to make everyone equal they must instill fear and diagnoses everyone with false handicaps.

Equality is important and means treating everyone fairly and giving everyone the opportunity to feel included.

Today, the United States has less equality of opportunity than any other place. They have exposed the legend that America is a country where opportunities are unlimited. In the dictionary equal society is an independent, non-profit, non-governmental organization which aims at sensitizing and informing citizens for sexual equality, equal opportunities, and non-discrimination in all fields of social life. As for me, equal society is when society, as a whole, is able to put differences aside and be able to work together for a common goal that works to better ourselves as individuals and as a group. Equal society has never been present throughout history, including today. It is shown through the change we have accomplished, common ideas we share,

Throughout history equality has impacted many people’s lives. There are numerous equality problems that the United States has faced through the years. Even today, in the 21st century, we still experience inequality.

Firstly, the caste system reflects the inequality of Indian society. Although religion in India is characterized by a diversity of religious beliefs and practices, majority of Indian population follow Hinduism. Therefore, the dominance of Hinduism beliefs is common in India. There is a belief in caste system, as Brood said, “a system of hierarchical social organization”1. Hindu society is divided into four main classes; the priestly class, the warrior and administrator class, the producer class who is farmers and merchants and the servant class. The remaining group of people who is “outcastes” is called “untouchables” or dalit. Brodd recognizes “dalits continue to suffer terrible oppression, especially in rural communities in India”. I still could not imagine how terrible this bottom class suffers until reading Max Bearak article. All sufferings of Rohith Vemula, from the hardships of growing up poor, interactions with society in caste to scholarship revoke and suicide, happened tragically because he was born in a dalit family. This is the

Looking upon Indian society for comparison, it is seen that the primary factor of the caste system is built

In 2017, as indicated by ASPE, the poverty line for four people in the United States is 24,600 dollars or less, and will rise as the standard of living costs increase with inflation. Many people believe that if one is poor, than their children will be poor. This opinion is flawed and outdated due to the many programs that help people in need nowadays. Other factors determine the success in a person’s future, such as their mindset and drive. Poverty does not affect power because behavior aspects influence a child's future, in addition to their cultural and geographical background.

As citizens of the United States, equality means that all individuals have the right to access a free and equal education regardless of their race, gender, disability, citizenship, or social status. True equal access should lead to the same outcomes for all students when seeking gainful employment, admission to colleges for advanced degrees, and for academic grades. However, this is not always the case because different students need different things in order to reach the same goals.

In conclusion, equality is something that should be spread around the world because not everyone has the luck to be spoon fed; moreover, it helps people come together to become

India’s caste system originated when the Aryans arrived. The Aryans had a social system where the warriors and priests where the ones with power. When these people encountered the farming society of India, the Aryans assumed power over the darker skinned Indians. The Indian people were then oppressed and forced to do the lower, less desirable jobs. This created the basis of the caste system. The idea of different jobs based on economic functions created an upper and lower caste. Throughout history, the caste system has stayed in place and impacted citizens of India today despite the eradication of law that enabled the caste system. Hinduism has played a large factor in the strengthening of the caste and is one of the reasons of the

What is equality? Is it just a political nomenclature or an ideological concept? Or is about working towards creating a fairer society in which each individual can enjoy his/her rights and freedom without any judgement considering that “[w]e will never have true civilization until we have learned to recognize the rights of others.” Will Rogers (1924, p210).

Equality stands side by side with no contingencies. To be truly equal there has to be no disadvantages. A society cannot have equality when arbitrary hinders its growth. John Rawls a philosopher of egalitarianism believes that an equal society is essential to its productivity. It is not fair for moral Arbitrariness to have superiority over the less fortunate in justice and the free market. There should be opportunities given to start at the same starting point regardless of status quo. Everyone has an opinion on equality which fairly is their own. An opinion is just an opinion base on what the individual believe is right by how they feel. What if you could strip away outside inferences, opinions and see equality for what it is. The
