The class system that developed in Aryan society was known as the Caste System. It consisted of four main social classes or varnas: Brahmins (priests and scholars), Kshatriyas (warriors and rulers), Vaishyas (merchants and farmers), and Shudras (laborers and servants). Below these varnas were the Dalits or Untouchables, who were considered to be outside of the caste system and faced severe discrimination.
India's caste system is a complex social hierarchy based on birth, with individuals belonging to specific hereditary social categories, whereas the Aryan social class system was a simpler division into four main groups - Brahmins (priests), Kshatriyas (warriors), Vaishyas (merchants), and Shudras (laborers). The caste system in India is more rigid and stratified compared to the Aryan social class system.
No, modern society has not had a system as rigid and extensive as India's caste system, which has historically dictated social status and occupations based on hereditary groupings. Such a system is considered discriminatory and has been outlawed in many countries.
So..... you wanna know how the Indian caste system is different to the American class system. Here, I'll help you. The Indian caste system, or varna came about when the Aryans began speaking nomadic groups came to India about 1500 BC. The Aryan priests divided society into a caste system with four parts. The priests( Brachmins) were the highest varna, the second caste was Kshatriyas, or rulers and warriors. Third in ran was the vaisyas( farmers, craftspeople and traders.) and the lowest ranking was the sudras and they were the workers and servants. People couldn't change their caste. They had to marry and socialize with people from their own caste. In the United States class is determined by how much wealth you have, not usually by your occupation. The 3 classes are upper class, middle class, and lower class. Most Americans fall into middle class or lower class with the very wealthiest people in the upper class. In American society, you aren't forced into one class. Our system is not based on religion like the caste system is. Hope that answers your question!! And i hope somebody answer the question to this. Compare the Indian caste system to the American class system.
A fixed social class system is one where individuals are born into a specific class and remain in that class throughout their lives. This system restricts social mobility and can perpetuate inequalities based on factors like wealth, education, and occupation. It can limit opportunities for those in lower classes to move up in society.
Most societies have some form of social stratification or class system, where individuals are grouped based on factors such as wealth, occupation, or social status. However, the specifics of these class systems vary greatly across cultures and historical periods.
