Us Vs Them in Rudyard Kipling's Kim

Abstract

Kim,the racial stereotyping novel depicts the Indian natives as inferior. Many negative images of India, figure prominently in colonial representation. They are marginalized both politically and socially, so they're treated with disrespect and the sense of humiliation has been inflicted upon them. The whites are privileged over the Indians. In this sense, the novel glorifies the British Imperialism and Kipling presents his defence of British rule in India. Though Indian spiritualism has been valorized Kipling others India and Indian which is a product of colonial mentality.
