Description: How do India's `untouchables' fit into the global economy?
Synopsis: Why has India's astonishing economic growth not reached the castes at the bottom of its social and economic hierarchy? Travelling the length and breadth of the subcontinent, this anthropological study seeks to the understand where India's `untouchables' fit in the global economy. India's Dalits and Adivasis communities make up a staggering one in twenty-five people across the globe and yet they remain amongst the most oppressed. Conceived in dialogue with economists, Ground Down by Growth reveals the impact of global capitalism on their lives. It reveals how capitalism entrenches, rather than erases, social difference and has transformed traditional forms of identity-based discrimination into new mechanisms of exploitation and oppression. Through studies of migrant labour and the intersections of caste, tribe, region, gender and class based oppression, the social inequalities generated by capitalism are exposed.
