Views of Society

It seems like Gandhi observes society as an important aspect of life in his essay on the Removal of Untouchability. This is the opposite of Nietzsche's view, who saw society as just a way to keep us caged up. Although he acknowledges the importance of society, he also realizes that a change is needed. In the essay he says, "Society will be better constituted than it is at present, and the impurity and hyposcrisy which infest it now will be dislodged" (233). Gandhi believes that through the varna system, society will be improved.
