@kentbuse "The government has said the reduction of UK aid spending from 0.7 to 0.5 per cent of gross national income is a temporary measure."

Hi #twitterstorians! This is the second installment on #Srinivas. Today we focus on his concept of #sanskritization

#Srinivas coined the term #sanskritization in the late 1940s and early 1950s while researching the Coorgs of South India. #Sankritization was used as a way to explain how certain groups like the Lingayats of Karnataka had move up in a caste structure that was supposed to be fixed
The main idea behind #sanskritization is that lower castes groups imitate and adopt Sanskritic culture and values. Along with economic and political power, eventually, #sanskritization would translate into ritual power too. This would make lower caste groups to move up socially
