Summary, etc |
Just as Americans least disadvantaged by racism are most likely to call their country post-racial, Indians who have benefited from upper-caste affiliation rush to declare their country a post-caste meritocracy. Ajantha Subramanian challenges this belief, showing how the ideal of meritocracy serves the reproduction of inequality in Indian education. |
