About the Book
This book revisits and reflects upon ideas first presented by S. A. Dange in the original edition published in 1949. Over the decades, the propositions advanced in the book have generated extensive debate and raised numerous questions. While it is not possible to address every issue in detail, the author engages with some of the most significant concerns and offers clear indications of their answers. A key focus of the discussion is the interpretation of Vedic literature, particularly questions surrounding the identity of the so-called Aryans, their racial character, and whether they were invaders of another people’s land. The book critically examines these assumptions and situates them within a broader historical and materialist framework. Combining historical inquiry with Marxist analysis, this work remains important for readers interested in ancient Indian history, historiography, and debates around race, migration, and social formation.
