This book explores the emergence of the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) as an alternative political force in Uttar Pradesh. It focuses on the historical continuity of Dalit social justice movements and organisational politics from pre to post-colonial India and its subsequent institutionalisation as a political force with the rise of the BSP in the state since the 1980s. The volume discusses the new age Dalit-Bahujan politics and its ethnicization of caste groups to create a bahujan samaj. It analyses the focused political leadership of Kanshiram and Mayawati, the strong party organisation, and how they evolved an empowered Dalit ideology and identity by grassroots mobilisation and championing Dalit icons and history. The author also explores the party's strategies, slogans and alliances with other political parties and communities and its political manoeuvrings to retain its influence over the electorate. The book also effectively identifies the reasons for the political marginalisation of the BSP in present times in the context of the phenomenal rise of the BJP in the state. The book will be of great interest to researchers and scholars of political science, sociology, Dalit and subaltern studies, exclusion studies and those working on the intersectionality of caste and class. It will also be useful for policy makers, think tanks and NGOs working in the domain of caste, marginality, social exclusion and identity politics.
