Abstract |
Caste has a long history in Hindu scripture. However, there are some important differences between how Hindu texts define caste and how caste actually works in the modern Hindu world. Although Hindu scripture does not assign castes to non-Hindus, non-Hindu communities often fit into Hindu-majority societies in similar ways to Hindu caste communities.
