This article will deconstruct the assumptions of the famous British Western Marxist, Anderson (2012) , and his recent critique of the Indian political economy in his controversial The Indian Ideology. Anderson’s work is a blistering critique of the origins of the post-British colonial Indian political-economy, society and culture. The paper examines different critical responses to Anderson’s work by Indian intellectuals in light of our re-interpretation of Marx and Engel’s classic, The German Ideology. Our aim is to critically appropriate the salience of Ambedkar’s ideas today in treating contemporary modalities of social exclusion, the continued practice of caste discrimination and political and constitutional responses to caste inequality. The paper argues for the development of new philosophical tools beyond the twentieth century Western Marxist frameworks, which informs the work of current thinkers like Anderson, to extend in new directions Ambedkar’s initial impulses in the South Asian critique of caste.

The character of historical archaeology in South Africa has been cast by the geography of its development and the historical roots of its subject matter. Arising in the south-western Cape, where Europeans collided with the nomadic Khoe and Bushmen, research agendas meshed with broader sub-disciplinary goals for a global, comparative archaeology of the last 500 years. In practice, this led to a focus on sites associated with European colonists. Investigations issuing from the ‘other side’ of these encounters were rare. In this chapter we acknowledge the important precedents set by pioneer researchers and explore how historical archaeologies in the interior offer new directions. Here encroaching colonists met established farming groups, encounters that set in motion complex and historically situated long-term entanglements. Recent and developing research in these areas signals a growing maturity within the field, enhanced by increasing collaboration among archaeologists of different sub-disciplinary persuasions, and between archaeologists and historians.
