4. GLOBALFAMILY - GLOBALISATION - THE DALIT PERSPECTIVE
The human life is both similar and also, at the same time, dissimilar to that of animals. What makes them similar is the basic instinct to survive - the basic instinct of all creatures to survive. Then what makes them dissimilar is the defininition of their lives. The life of animals is defined by the nature. Whereas, it is the humans who define their lives for themselves, ever increasingly, as generations pass.
In this present global scenario where the entire world has arrived at the cross roads and stopped with a big jolt of halt for the next era of march a lot is boiling and swirling to spin out a new definition for the life of human beings. Perhaps, there are quite many who believe that the world has already embarked upon a new era of advancement with the powerful trend of 'globalisation'. It is quiet funny that they neither understand nor are trying to hide the fact that the world in its halt is simply making circles without slipping into any direction of advancement. 'Globalisation' is one such circle. Isn't this word 'globalisation' sounding something of a similar word that gripped the entire world - one part gripped in terror and the other part in merry, earlier. Does it not recall from our forgotten memories the word 'globalfamily'. Globalfamily was and is a proletariat perspective. Globalisation is a capitalist perspective in its final stage - the stage of its death.
Both the proletariat and the capitalists have come to a common agreement on one of the fundamental questions. That question is the form of the organistion of the globe. The extension of chain of human relations beyond the boundaries of nationalities is the common result of both perspectives.
But the serious dispute is about its content. That, however, continues. No common agreement can be expected on that - the content. The content is in the unawares of the capitalist intellectuals who have become ideologically bankrupt long back and from whose finger holds the pens are slipping out for ever. The proletariat alone knows the content. For the proletariat it was and is for the strengthening of the humanity. For the capitalists, on the contrary, it is for the expansion of markets, for the increment to profits and for, essentially, the surplus labour. The former sees another human hand to be gripped to extend the chain of globalfamily of humans. The latter sees a pocket with a purse and a little money in it for a loot. The former assures mutual cooperation, ensures common growth, instills mutual confidence and guarantees peace. The latter, the capitalist globalisation, establishes the domination of the strong, only the belligerents grow at the cost of developing nations, increases global tensions and kills peace.
The 'by-birth-intellectuals' of India are hailing globalisation. The dalits are warring against it. India too is at its cross-roads. It is - is it the DALIT perspective or the Brahminised Marxism. The journey has started and embarked upon the path of Dalit perspective. There is no Democratic perspective than the Dalit perspective in India.
