Cracked Mirror, is a seminal book by Prof. Gopal Guru and Prof. Sunder
Sarrukai, has generated this debate amongst Indian social scientists and
Philosophers. Interestingly, the theme of seminar is on evaluating the
relevance of Ambedkars thought to contemporary Indian society, which
is facing onslaught of neo-liberal globalization on the one hand and
shrinking democratic spaces of secularism and social justice on the other.
Therefore, in this paper an attempt would be made to understand the
critical map of Ambedkars modernity and its promise to make Indian
society just and egalitarian in political outlook.
There are two broad contours of argument to be made in the paper , the
first deals with question of identity discourse in the light of Ambedkars
ideas on caste annihilation and its theoretical responses to address the
multilayered
Baghel with the participants and several queries and questions arises and
discussed by the resource persons and participants. Vote of thanks
