Castes in India: Their Mechanism, Genesis and Development is a paper written by B. R. Ambedkar, which he presented at an anthropological seminar in New York on May 9, 1916. It was later published in Indian Antiquary in 1917, and Ambedkar received a PhD from Columbia University on the same topic. In this paper, Ambedkar explained how the caste system emerged from the Brahmins' practice of marrying only within their group, influencing other groups to do the same and creating castes.

B. R. Ambedkar

B. R. Ambedkar (1891–1956) was a pioneering Indian social reformer, economist, and the chief architect of India’s Constitution. A prominent advocate for social justice, he fought against caste discrimination and championed the rights of marginalized communities. His early work, Castes in India: Their Mechanism, Genesis and Development (1916), analyzed the caste system's social structure. Ambedkar’s lifelong dedication to equality and his intellectual contributions continue to influence social reforms in India.
