“The British left a legitimate legacy”: Sorb Mukherjia tells the Indian parents to free children from the cult of the degree of martyrdom

Sorb Mukhirgia from Marcellus, who warns that the elite degrees no longer carry the key to success in an economic world radically change.

In Bodcast recently with Bharataratta, Mukherjia argued that establishing India in prestigious degrees and the education of the elite – I consider tickets considered for the bullish movement – its benefit. “We forget the degree itself,” he said. “Focusing on abstract thinking skills, creativity and expression.” According to him, these are the real tools for survival and success in today’s world.

For Mukherjia, the root of this mania lies in the colonial past of India. “The British came, they created the civil service and the Babo Biblical class.” After independence, the leaders of India adopted the same bureaucratic model, as it designed a system that comes out of office workers instead of risk. He said: “We have been brought up through our school years and university university to be decent employees for large companies.” “This world has gone.”

The transformation is not optional but structural. “The employment as a phenomenon is only about 200 years old,” he said. “Before that, we were a community of entrepreneurship. Everyone will have to become a pioneer now – with design or necessity.”

Mukherjia, historian Lakshmi Subramanian, was martyred before the empire, which separates how India was before colonialism a global commercial center and has a strong law and a low cost of capital. “We had a vibrant and prosperous business community,” he explained. The British dismantled it-in terms of strategic and methodological aspect-by strengthening the contempt of local entrepreneurs and replacing them with the interests of the colonial backed business.

“The British left, but their wicked legacy remained,” said Mukherjia. “They have convinced us that the best life is a life of white collar that was secured through learning and emotional degrees. This mentality lasted 75 years-but it has now shattered.”

With the prosperity of the start -up scene in India and a new generation that rejects traditional functional texts, Mukherjia believes that returning to the roots is not only late, but inevitable. His advice to the next generation? “Stop struggle to verify your value through elite testimonies. Build things. Think differently. Get your future.”
