In what two ways were Indians grouped into castes

History
1 answer:
AlexFokin [52]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

There are two bases of the Indian social division into castes. The castes system has been consolidated and fed by religious practices. Ancient Hindu texts speak about four castes  or profession: brahmins (priests), warriors, merchants and workers. Brahmins were at the top of society, the elite. The other source is simply social practice. There are still several groups that are seen as inferior , the "untouchables" just like the dalits; they perform the lowest and dirtiest jobs.    Though castes don´t exist formally in Indian law, they exist in reality and social and racial divisions run still deep in India.

What was the unaligned movement’s perspective of the US-backed Guatemalan Coup, 1955?
maks197457 [2]

Answer: In the excerpt, Eisenhower justified the overthrow of Guatemalan President Jacobo Arbenz, because of the communist threat the country had posed to the United States and the rest of the Western Hemisphere.The 1954 Guatemalan coup d'état, code-named Operation PBSuccess, was a covert operation carried out by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) that deposed the democratically elected Guatemalan President Jacobo Árbenz and ended the Guatemalan Revolution of 1944–1954.Eisenhower did not want to intervene directly in Guatemala, however, to avoid the impression that the United States would attack a Western Hemisphere ally. Additionally, Eisenhower had vowed to reduce Cold War military spending.Arbenz made agrarian reform the central project of his administration. This led to a clash with the largest landowner in the country, the U.S.-based United Fruit Company, whose idle lands he tried to expropriate. He also insisted that the company and other large landowners pay more taxes.
