Marginalized socially, culturally, and politically, Dalits remain one of the most vulnerable communities in the country despite constitutional guarantees and legal protections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book undertakes a detailed study of the historical roots and contemporary manifestations of Dalit marginalization, analyzing the impact of evolving social, economic, and political landscapes. It pays particular attention to the compounded vulnerability of Dalit women, children, and those displaced from their homes and lands—examining how intersecting layers of identity further intensify their marginalization.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChatterjee also critically investigates the sensitive issue of religious conversion among Dalits, exploring the factors that drive them to seek spiritual and social liberation through conversion, as well as their socio-political status post-conversion. This nuanced analysis is placed within the broader framework of globalization and the global human rights discourse that has gained momentum since the 1990s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy tracing both the violations of Dalit rights and their struggles for justice and dignity, this book provides a comprehensive account of the civil rights scenario of Dalits in India today. It is an indispensable resource for scholars, human rights activists, policymakers, and anyone interested in the ongoing fight for equality and justice in Indian society.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author \/ Editor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDebi Chatterjee is a Professor of International Relations at Jadavpur University, Kolkata, and has also been associated with teaching Sociology and organizing human rights courses at Calcutta University.
