A Comparative Analysis of the Social and Political Thought of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar and Guruchand Thakur: A Systematic Review

Author(s) Ms. Susmita Roy
Country India
Abstract This research examines the social and political theory of Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar and Guruchand Thakur, two Indian reformers that have shaped the country's tradition of opposition to caste and social reform. Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar established a theoretical foundation based upon constitutional principles and philosophy that would provide the basis for the abolition of caste and the establishment of democratic justice. Guruchand Thakur has become a prominent reformer within his region, developing a socio-religious movement to empower the Namasudra and Matua castes in Bengal. A qualitative comparative methodology was used in this study to examine the social and political theory of Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar and Guruchand Thakur by employing a systematic review of secondary sources selected through a PRISMA style process. Secondary literature consisted of 21 academic sources from an original 51 articles. These results highlight both similarities and differences in their theories relating to education, critiques of caste, social reform, and political organization. The research also shows how their ideas continue to relate to current discussions concerning social justice and inclusive democracy in India.
