What is the primary critique of Subaltern school regarding the discipline of history ?
Answer: C
The Subaltern critique is that Traditional historical narratives marginalized certain groups of people.
The Subaltern Studies group, launched by Ranajit Guha in 1982, argued that both colonialist and nationalist histories of India were elitist: they told the story through elites and left out the peasants, workers, tribals and other subordinate groups, whose own politics they sought to recover.
Their quarrel was not that earlier histories lacked method or scientific rigour, or that they dealt only with politics, but that they silenced the subaltern.
