Description

Explore the complex social dynamics of colonial India with this scholarly work from the Nordic Institute of Asian Studies Monograph Series. This book examines how changing social expectations among Indian Catholics challenged the Roman Church and brought renewed focus to the persistence of caste within Christian communities. Through a detailed historical lens, the text analyzes how low-caste unrest led to varying responses from European missionaries and high-caste Indian priests. It traces how the socio-economic impact of religious conversion became a significant issue that reached the highest levels of authority, including the Apostolic Delegate and the Pope. This study also looks at how English social attitudes were brought to India and how they shaped racial attitudes during this period. It is a necessary resource for students and researchers interested in the history of religion, social hierarchy, and the colonial experience in Asia.
