Preface to Second Edition
First edition was published in the year July 2003. When it was
in circulation, many scholars enquired about the form of alternative
governments/regimes as I was pointing out flaws in the democracy.
So I have included GLOBAL GOVERNANCE as an answer.
I felt it is appropriate to include my own conjecture, named as
BABY CONJECTURE, which will act as catalyst in the formation
of global civilization and/or egalitarian society. The changes in
appearance and content is incorporated into the second edition. Every
sentence in this book carries a lot of information, hence I request
readers to assimilate and enjoy the aesthetic value associated with
each sentence. I request you to mail your opinions to
vmaredu@gmail.com, mvdass@yahoo.co.in

FOREWORD
Any scientific and technological revolution, which has the
potential to affect and influence the human civilization, would necessarily
result in a corresponding social transformation. It happened in the past
and will happen in future also, in the process of social evolution. The
belief of Prof. Venkat Dass that the present IT Revolution shall bring
in a tremendous social revolution in the societies of the world is logical
and well founded.
The equation that Word + Script + Knowledge = Power is a
powerful and innovative concept. With IT revolution, there is explosion
of knowledge and with that a tremendous power generation is in
human mind. This power is going to affect the mankind and bring in
a social transformation. But our concern is how this social
transformation is going to reshape the societies at large and whether
the existing institutions - political, economic and social - are capable
of coping with the inevitable social transformation for the good of the
majority? Or whether they need any radical change? If so in what
form and who should be the right choice to participate and reshape
these institutions and guide the impending social transformation?
Whether the oppressed and suppressed people of the world could
effectively participate to bring in equity and justice in the society to
regain the lost human rights and dignity?
"When there is no fair means, then unfair activity begins". I
congratulate Prof. M. Venkat Dass for his innovative and revolutionary
concept. Shall we hope that the present civil societies and governments
transform themselves to usherin equity and justice in all spheres of
human activity that there is no need for a unfair activity either by an
individual or by any institution. This revolutionary thought of Prof.
Venakt Dass deserves a deep consideration by all of us and especially
the social scientists and activists.

I AM GRATEFUL TO SO MANY...
FOR DOING SO MUCH...
I thank the then honourable Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh,
Shri Digvijay Singh, who initiated the historical event, that triggered
lives of DALITS throughout India in 21st Century. Shri Digvijay Singh
came up with a noble thought and process but it was unfortunate that
his policies and thought process were not accepted by the people of
Madhya Pradesh (MP) due to insufficient time frame. Had he
continued as Chief Minister not only Dalit Community in MP but also
entire Dalit intellectual force in the country should have been
strengthened by this time. When the concept was under crystallizing
process, general elections took place and he lost the race. Internal
forces within, the then government, did not digest the thought process
and there was not enough propaganda on the said policy. All these
factors culminated into heavy loss resulting in losing the battle.

INTRODUCTION
1
scientists dealt a severe blow to the feudal system and socialistic
and democratic forms of Governments took their place, more or
less throughout the world because of the easy preservation and
communication of knowledge. By the time of Karl Marx socialist
thinking and democratic forms of Govts. came into existence. Barter
system disappeared and paper form of currency took its place and
the quantum of money became unlimited.
These social changes were possible because of the two sets
of scientists; one in science and technology and other in social
sciences. The first category of scientists contributed to the material
progress and other category to the social progress of the people.
These transformations and changes are well known. But now with
the advent of computers and electronic technology the medium of
communication transformed itself into floppies and Compact Disks
(CDs); Currency from paper money to electronic money (e-money)
and electronic baking (e-banking).
With the scientific and technological changes, rapid social
changes also accompanied. That means scientific revolution is
interlinked with the social revolution. All sections of the society
including Dalits in India were greatly influenced and empowered in
their thinking and skills, with these scientific and social revolutions.
Now I wish to pose to you a fundamental question. Will
social scientists and activists, especially from oppressed and
suppressed sections of entire globe, think a while whether there is
any necessities for change; new forms of establishments and
governments?

Before Invention of Script
5
Before the Invention of Script
Q1: Structure of the Society:
What was the structure of
the society?
• Unorganized life style.
Q2: Form of Business:
What was the form of
business?
• Purely it was Barter System.
Q3: Mobility :
What was the mobility of
word and economy ?
• Confined to very small
region.
6
After the Invention of the script
power is
WORD + SCRIPT + KNOWLEDGE = POWER
7
• WORD is the representative
symbol of the language.
• SCRIPT is the precise mechanism
and effective way of representation
of WORDS.
• Script is having the capacity to
store information for a longer
period of time.
• KNOWLEDGE is a set of facts
logically organized with the help
of WORDS and/or SCRIPT.
• WORDS, SCRIPT and
KNOWLEDGE are converted
into POWER.
8
• If there is a small increase in any
quantities of the left hand side of
equation then there is huge amount
of POWER generation in the right
hand side of the equation.
• If this POWER, which is in the
human mind, is not properly
directed, it may lead to destruction,
like Einstein's power equation,
E=mc2, applied to Hiroshima-
Nagasaki.
9
When
Symbols came into existence,
communication skills improved;
thereby there was progress in
human civilization.
When
Script was in its initial stage, kings
and kingdoms slowly began to
come into existence.
When
Script completely developed in its
form, then there was considerable
change in the Society.
10
As a Result of
the Invention of the Script
11
If we pose first three questions
in the same order,
after the Invention of the script.
12
Q1: Structure of the Society:
Answer for the first question
is -
Kingdom.
Q3: Mobility:
Answer for the third question
is -
Across the entire Kingdoms,
when compared to small regions.
13
Changes, which are responsible for
the existence of the kingdoms:
14
RISE OF BUDDHA AND CHRIST
without fall
Buddha and Christ preached an
egalitarian thinking much earlier,
similar to the ideologies of Karl Marx
and Other Democratic thinkers like
Dr. Ambedkar.
15
Here is a Question:
16
Here is the answer:
Propagation of ideologies was slow
and confined, because of the
limitations of the script, during the
life time of Buddha and Christ
and
There was no change in the form of
economy.
17
In the 15th century, printing machine
was invented.
18
This change in script and currency
due to the advancements in science
and technology, paved the way to
Karl Marx and other Social
Democrats to help establish the
present day Democratic and
Socialistic pattern of Governments.
19
Now in this modern era invention of
computer once again triggered a new
form of the script and the currency.
20
Manifestation and unfolding of all
applications with the help of modern
machine to bring change in social
order is known as IT Revolution.
21
Q1: Structure of the Society:
What is the structure of the
society?
• Is it still unorganized with respect
to IT revolution or no answer for
this question.
Q2: Form of Business:
What is the form of business?
• Changed to E-commerce,
E-banking, E-money from
Conventional paper currency.
Q3: Mobility :
What is the mobility of economy
and mobility of script ?
• Entire globe.
22
Let us Consider once again the
power equation:
23
We can derive the following
conclusions from our power equation.
24
When there is no fair means
then unfair activity begins.
25
The flaw in democracy is that there is
no justified guaranteed path for the
ordinary innocent man to become rich
in wealth and thought.
26
The present day governments, whether
they are democratic or socialistic or
both cannot properly handle the power
which is generated with IT revolution.
27
Now social scientists should strive
hard to establish better institutions,
mechanisms and governments,
because corresponding social
revolution or transformation should
accompany the scientific revolution.
28
Who will participate in the
transformation?

30
Who are you?
The Power in human mind must be utilised for the Nation;
unfortunately, that is not happening in India. Why?
When the question "who are you?" is posed, generally the
plausible answer is the "name", i.e. I am so and so. But in India, the
answer could be further extended; I am a Brahmin, a Rajput, a
Reddy, a Kamma, a Yadav, a Mahar, a Mong, a Chamar, a Mala
or a Madiga or a Pariah. It could be also a combination of Caste
and Religion. Almost all Indians, perforce are compelled to identify
themselves with the caste or with caste and religion, but never with
the Nationality, as the concept of Nationality is totally absent to an
Indian mind, as long as he is on the Indian-soil.
What is wrong with this kind of non-identity with the nation?
If one identifies himself with the caste or religion the problem
would be as under. If one is given any quantity of fruits he would
take some of them. If there is any quantity of fruits left over then he
would distribute to the people of his caste, his religion or his region.
If he identifies with the nation and nationality he would lend them to
the Nation. Nationality became virtually absent in Indian thought,
because of the historical reasons; caste system and religious precepts.
With this attitude prevailing in every Indian mind and in all
parts of India, is it possible to achieve an equitable and egalitarian
society, however much the rulers are crying from house tops for
establishing, a Golden era (Swarna Yuga)? It is almost impossible
what ever you do. The graded inequality called caste system exists
everywhere in India supported voluntarily or involuntarily by the
common man, intelligentsia and illiterate and also both by the
oppressor as well as the oppressed. The rulers of this country failed
31
in past and also failing at present, to address this problem honestly
and effectively. The forces, which are fighting against graded inequality
called caste system, are too weak to fight against the strong and
long established caste system. Therefore the inequality in the society
still exists and is coming in the way of establishing egalitarian society
where justice, freedom, equality and human dignity, inform all
institutions and systems in the country.
Can we define Golden era to be very simple as :
There should not be any starvation and unemployment in
society. Further there should be mutual respect to each other and a
justified guaranteed path to become rich in wealth and thought.
If we are comfortable with the definition of the Golden era,
How to start? Where to start to achieve it?
I think it is right time for the rulers and intelligentsia of this
country to recollect and remember the saying of Dr. Baba Saheb
Ambedkar.
"You cannot build any thing on the foundations of caste.
You cannot build a class. You cannot build morality".
If we the toiling masses India, inherit the philosophy and
thought process of the Dalit Bahujan (oppressed castes) Philosophers
and Social Revolutionaries like Budha, Jyoti Rao Phoole, Dr.
Ambedkar, Narayana Guru, Sahu Maharaj, Periyar Rama Swamy,
Beersa Munda and Komram Bheem then we can transform this
country into modern egalitarian India, where every one feels and
experiences equality in every aspect of life.
Now we are in the age of Information Technology (IT)
Revolution which is a great and miraculous technological
transformation, which can influence every aspect of human life. As
I mentioned at the other place this wonderful technological revolution
shall result in a "new social revolution" which could be a unique
contribution to the mankind. Throughout the world the suppressed
and oppressed people have the capability to achieve this new social
32
revolution. In India particularly Dalits have this capability. As Newton’s
third law postulates that any suppressed force if released, bounces
back to its original position with a jerk, the same natural law can
apply to the social and human behavior also. The Dalits and the
other suppressed and oppressed people of the country, with equal
capability (physical and mental) can bounce back to their original
position in the society at par with others, only if the suppressed
forces are released.
33
When my first edition was in
circulation, many scholars enquired
about the form of alternative
governments/regimes, as I was
pointing out flaws in democracy.
34
Global governance?
Yes, it is global governance.
It took its birth and is still in its
infancy.
This will influence and reform very
rapidly, the present national and/or
local governments/regimes throughout
the globe, with the help of catalytic
elements which are
• International communication
medium
• National and International culture
and history
• Technological advances in science
and technology.
All these have paved the way for
Global Governance.

36
GLOBAL GOVERNANCE IS
INEVITABLE
I would like to place some observations and considerations in
front of you, readers. Either we accept or deny, the truth is that
world is changing into global village under one umbrella i.e. information
revolution or computerisation. In future all, regional governments
and/or National governments will be legally governed by GLOBAL
GOVERNANCE in the name of trade and commerce. In the near
future (at least within ten years from now) every human being on the
globe will be given a unique code similar to Social Security Number
in the US. Due to these changes in the globe, a new work force
called KNOWLEDGE WORKERS is created and allowed to
move through the world without any restrictions. This work force is
qualitative and derived from the skill set which includes technocrats,
doctors, linguists, computer professionals and people from humanities
with 2 or 3 languages of international recognition. Thus a Global
economy will evolve slowly, and will be easily convertible to any
local money automatically as and when one moves from one country
to another country.
37
Class I on wards. Hence, people cannot see English as foreign
language instead they look at it as Basic skill. It is basic skill
because the people who use English increasing day-by-day, next the
most of scientific inventions and discoveries are preserved in the
English literature, computers and English are interlinked and
inseparable; last but not least it incorporates and/or assimilates
global words from other languages to enhance its richness. Hence it
is butter and blood.
38
Hence I appeal to regimes throughout the globe to bring
necessary legislations and policies to provide quality English education
to the children of rural masses from the very beginning i.e., from
class I on wards. I wish to propose that half of the subjects
prescribed for the students, must be taught in English and others
may be taught in their mother tongue for better understanding. That
is subjects like English language, Environmental Science, Moral
Sciences must be taught through medium of English from Class I
onwards.
39
We can wrap up with the following
conclusions
People cannot see English as foreign
language instead they look at it as
Basic Skill because
• the people who use it are
increasing day-by-day
• the most of scientific inventions
and discoveries are preserved in
the English literature
• information Technology and
English are interlinked and
inseparable
• English incorporates and/or
assimilates global words from
other languages to enhance its
richness.
• Hence English is butter and
blood.
40
Knowledge workers are of two types
41
IT = Basic English Education +
Computer +
Usage of Software
42
When the mobility of ECONOMY
and SCRIPT is confined to the globe,
then there should be corresponding
social structure and regime to monitor
the mobility of life.
43
Will the global governance create
conducive atmosphere to establish
egalitarian society?
Answer is YES.
• Global economy will evolve
slowly, which will be easily
convertible to any local money
automatically as and when one
moves from one country to another
country.
• Boundary disputes between
countries slowly disappear.
• Knowledge workers are freely
allowed to move from one part of
the globe to another.
44
• A knowledge worker assimilates
and accumulates POWER in his/
her mind in the process of
movement.
• Supremacy of one country over
another country becomes less
important.
• Due to mobility of knowledge
workers literacy rate will increase
to its maximum degree throughout
the world.
45
Will this global governance create
any adverse impact ?
There are two answers YES &
NOT ABSOLUTELY YES
It is YES because
• If global governance goes into
the hands of selfish individuals,
they spread across the world in
the name of market forces which
in turn do not help to form
egalitarian society.
• Then it is the ultimate form of
Capitalism
• Capitalism does not care for
others but only believes in its
self-growth by nurturing conflicts;
46
such as
conflicts between groups, conflicts due
to jealousy, conflicts due to poverty/
digital divide, conflicts of hatred
among religions and conflicts among
its peers.
47
Another answer is
NOT ABSOLUTELY YES
because
48
BABY CONJECTURE
(Background : On 10th & 11th, December 2005, MJP Institute of
Social justice, Hyderabad, India, conducted a two days seminar on
Empowerment of Marginalised Sections of Indian society. Some of
the dignitaries like Mr. J. M. Lyngdo, former Chief Election
Commissioner of India, and Justice B. S. A. Swamy, former Judge
of High Court , Andhra Pradesh were present on the dais for the
one of sessions on the topic “Political Elections and Corruption.”
As a moderator I formed a conjecture and answered the issues
raised by elite group in the seminar. Now, I am naming it as BABY
CONJECTURE.)
Base 1
Statement:
■ Two facts which are opposite to one
another are considered to be negation
of another.
Base 2
■ Sheer opportunism in human beings is
not only a culprit for unpredictable
behaviour or good and bad precisely;
something which is unseen or unearthed
by any science may be a cause.
50
• Initially the commerce and curiosity
are driving forces to evolve and
establish mathematics. Thus it is
evolved and offered its services
particularly to the field of commerce
and in general to the society.
51
• A direct application of mathematics,
physics and chemistry can be observed
in the formation of Egyptian Pyramids
and mummification of dead bodies
nearly 4620 years ago.
52
• Mathematics with help of its offshoots
physics, chemistry, and engineering
gave birth to Computer Science and
Information Technology. Thus all these
led to the concept of global village
and now which is crystallizing.
53
If so, what are the guiding principles for
the process of conceiving a new branch
and why?
54
So, Mathematics with the help of all the
sciences is conceiving another branch of
science to handle unpredictable human
behaviour.

majority, it may result in eradication of Social inequalities and the political,
economic and social justice will percolate to the lower rungs of the
society. On the other hand, if the people with knowledge does not act
fairly and dispassionately and try to maintain the statusquosim the very
existence of the civilized society will be at peril and it may lead to a
chaotic situation.
I have a feeling that Mr. Dass made this exercise keeping the
fast degeneration of values in the society to make an appeal to the well-
meaning people that "unless we invent new ways and new methods
to choose right people in all walks of life, the country cannot exist
as a Nation"
I Congratulate Mr. Dass for the pains he has taken in exposition of
the subject in his own way.

62
'Patronizing attitude will not help'
63
' Whether the knowledge is primary or the society?'
The ideas put forward by the author are creative and original, but
controversial. He gives primacy to the power of knowledge in
influencing society. But it is debatable whether knowledge is primary
or society is primary. I hope this thesis will generate lively debate and
help to clarify the relation between knowledge and society.
64
Establishing Future Society
(Translation from Telugu which is on the next page)
Information Revolution! Will it lead to a new social revolution?
The book stimulates many thoughts about information revolution.
It is wonderful to know that the author has precepted two words, namely
WORD and SCRIPT, which have brought in many revolutions in the
society. It is unparall that the author, Professor Venkat Dass, has arranged
the proposed new theory which may be spread to hundreds of pages
into few statements. It is highly laudable that the author has preluded in
a fashion to be understood even by school children i.e., WORD +
SCRIPT+ KNOWLEDGE are playing pivotal role as POWER in human
mind which is driving the ruling class. It is necessary that this book
should be concised and published as a text book for the schools children
to Post Graduate (P.G) students. Further, this book excellently details
and encourages the oppressed classes and literates of first generation
to transform themselves into ruling class with sufficient self -pride and
to obtain their share of power.
The Information Technology (IT) is establishing itself as an indi-
visible part of our life-style and it is piercing into all directions of our life,
I.T. Revolution is transforming all the erstwhile social setups and ideolo-
gies and even borders and territories of countries. It is shaping up the
world into a global village. With the advent of this Information Technol-
ogy, nations, empires, governments would change their attitude and cre-
ate a world which requires only a passport without visa. It is wonderfull
that professor Venkat Dass has implicitly explained that this book coor-
dinates leftists, democrats, emperors, military personnel and socialists
to bring to a common platform, so that these people throughout the world
can actively participate in shaping the future society.

The framework you have designed and the questions you have
posed on the society and economy appear to be promising enough
to throw light on the evolutionary process.
Prof. J. Anantha Swamy
Vice-Chancellor, Osmania University, Hyderabad, India.
I have gone through the proposed new theory, in which the author
has pointed out the flaw in democracy very rightly. " The flaw in
democracy is that, there is no justified guaranteed path, for
the ordinary innocent man to become rich in wealth and
thought".
71
I am quoting the following sentences from this book, "The
leaders who are expected to lead this revolution must be those
whose perception of social development was influenced by their
own sufferings and experiences learnt through tears of social,
political and economic inequities, but yet stood firm to their
ground with discipline, morality and sense of social justice,
without any revenge towards their offenders. Only such leadership
can reshape the social history of the country, and bring salvation
to the unfortunate millions. I expect the Dalit leaders and the
Dalit intelligentsia to possess such character, to take the challenge
and help in bringing the required social revolution". I fully agree
with the author in his proposition.

Dear Venkat,
Thank you for “Information Revolution! Will It Lead To A
New Social Revolution?”
The basic idea is sound that information technology can
bridge present, old-fashioned gaps between social classes and
castes, However, at present, the world suffers from a severe
“digital divide” between the rich having access to IT and the
poor having hardly any access. Moreover, many IT freaks in
the west completely lack the spiritual insights you are amply
demonstrating.
Best Wishes,
Ernst
