India and the caste system
Découvrir la structure sociale indienne des castes.
La société indienne est divisée en 4 principales castes. Elles sont indissociables du mode de vie des Indiens et de l'organisation sociale et politique du pays.
India has been part
of the Commonwealth
since it became independent in 1947, after 96 years under
British domination. Queen Victoria was then very proud of
her new title, Empress of India, although she never went
there! India is very different from what we know in
Europe. India has a system of
castes which we can’t really dissociate
from the traditions of the country and its way of life.
There are four main groups:
- the scheduled
castes, better known as the
“untouchables”,
those people form the lowest
classes of the population,
- the scheduled tribes
which include the aboriginal
populations,
- the other backward
castes,
- the forward castes,
which are what we would call in England the upper-class.
