Why was buddhisim successful in challenging brahmin power​

History
1 answer:
kicyunya [14]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Brahmin power is a fiction - India was always ruled by kings not priests. Buddha himself was a scion of a royal family as were many other sages and enlightened beings.

Buddhism was never a political movement - it was about achieving freedom from suffering not about power and prestige.

Buddha like many of his contemporaries among the Hindus and the Jain challenged many of the philosophical positions of each other but socially lived in cooperation and harmony.

Nana76 [90]
Gordiner uses irony in that occurrence, for it is ironic that the wife seems to be more trusting of the unemployed vagrants than her maid. One would expect the opposite, that she would be more doubtful of them and that the maid would inspire her to help them.

The extract illustrates the difficult societal circumstances and conflicts which were created by a legalized system of oppression. In the first place, whites, in terms of the apartheid system were placed in superior position and could play a part in all the privileges such a system granted them. All the other races were classified as second or third class members of the society. This obviously led to huge inequalities in the socio-economic status of the different racially classified groups.

Since white people were a privileged class, it was reasonable that a great number of them would adopt a part of superiority and they would look down to the less privileged. Their actions were not essentially guided by sense of obligatory duty or pity but they felt being superior meaning that they could be patronized and make available for those in need. Furthermore, because of the huge difference, the less privileged classes were required into subservient positions and this led to manipulation and abuse that survival became a anxious struggle. Many earned pittance and lived in impoverished conditions.

Briefly explain one difference in the practice of real politik by Louis Napoleon and Otto van Bismarck
Butoxors [25]

Louis Napoleon Bonaparte's seizure of power was the product of just another coup de etat. One of his guiding principles is found in his deep belief in the power of the middle class and its nationalist connotations with some similarities to the social policies of Bismarck.

Louis was mainly supported by the low classes, the peasants, He used his mandate to abolish the recently created representative assembly, in order to marginalize the liberal factions, finally becoming himself a new emperor in the second middle of the IX th century. Shortly after being in power he restored universal suffrage.

On the other hand: Bismarck’s realpolitik policies were employed in response to the failed revolutions of 1848 as a way of strengthening the state system and tighten social order. As the most famous advocate of Realpolitik,  Otto became the first Chancellor, serving in the Kingdom of Prussia. The use of Realpolitik had him achieve Prussian dominance in Germany. Manipulating political issues causing antagonism in other countries and causing or engaging in wars if necessary, "the end justified the means".
