520 |a Socio-Reform Movements dawned in Travancore in the nineteenth Century helped a lot in restructuring the traditional caste-centric, obscurantist society. While analyzing the structural changes in Travancore due to social movements, the economic backdrop of these movements also should be analysed and interpreted. The rise and growth of colonialism and the intervention of capitalism as a mode of production was an important economic change occurred in Travancore in the nineteenth century. The introduction of finance capitalism, beginning of plantation industries, modern transport and communication etc economically altered Travancore in a form of what A.G. Frank called, ‘development of under development’. But these modernization activities helped to destroy the feudal mode of production in Travancore. Caste and feudalism worked together in Travancore during this period. Thus these economic changes gradually shook the very foundation of caste system and its related social inequalities like untouchabilty, unapproachability etc. More over the transition from feudalism to capitalism opened umpteen numbers of new opportunities to the people of the Dalit and Depressed communities in Travancore. They got employment in plantations, coir factories, rubber factories etc. This economically empowered these people. Once they were economically empowered, they were denied of basic civic rights by both the State and the caste Hindus. The Socio Reform Movements emerged in this context were instrumental in social change in the newly emerged market oriented economic system.
