After watching, post your answers to the following questions on the discussion board:
Part I:
• Which caste benefits the most from the social hierarchy in India? Which caste operates at the bottom of the social hierarchy?
• What is another name for the lowest caste? Why do they have this name (i.e., what do members of higher castes belief will happen if they touch members of the lowest caste)?
• Under the caste system in India, how was one’s social position determined (i.e., recalling chapter 5 of your text, is one’s social position under the caste system achieved or ascribed)?
• How are people’s lives shaped by the caste to which they belong? What kinds of occupations are common among the lowest caste?
• Even though the caste system was formally outlawed in 1949, the practice continues to shape people’s lives in tremendous ways, particularly in the more rural regions of India where tradition and cultural beliefs remain strong. Why, even after it has been formally outlawed, do you believe some people still accept this social system?
Part II:
• From a sociological standpoint, describe how the caste system in India is similar to the class system in the US.
• How do ascribed/inherited characteristics such as race/skin color, ethnicity/nationality, gender, and family background or social class shape the social positions of individuals in the US?
• Although formally outlawed, do you think the legacy of racial stratification in the US continues to impact people’s lives today, similar to how the legacy of the caste system impacts people’s lives in India still today?
As you respond to your classmates’ posts, consider the cultural differences evident in the film. How would you feel about living in society operating under a closed system of stratification? Would you feel the system was fair? Why/why not? Should ascribed characteristics shape the opportunities available to us and/or influence our ability to experience upward social mobility?
