This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 871 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ramachandra Guha’s India after Gandhi is a magisterial account of the pains, struggles, humiliations and glories of the world’s largest and least likely democracy. A riveting chronicle of the often brutal conflicts that have rocked a giant nation, and of the extraordinary individuals and institutions who held it together, it established itself as a classic when it was first published in 2007. In the last decade, India has witnessed, among other things, two general elections; the fall of the Congress and the rise of Narendra Modi; a major anti-corruption movement; more violence against women, Dalits, and religious minorities; a wave of prosperity for some but the persistence of poverty for others; comparative peace in Nagaland but greater discontent in Kashmir than ever before. This tenth anniversary edition, updated and expanded, brings the narrative up to the present. Published to coincide with seventy years of the country’s independence, this definitive history of modern India is the work of one of the world’s finest scholars at the height of his powers.
Download or read book India Unbound written by Gurcharan Das and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2002-04-09 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India today is a vibrant free-market democracy, a nation well on its way to overcoming decades of widespread poverty. The nation’s rise is one of the great international stories of the late twentieth century, and in India Unbound the acclaimed columnist Gurcharan Das offers a sweeping economic history of India from independence to the new millennium. Das shows how India’s policies after 1947 condemned the nation to a hobbled economy until 1991, when the government instituted sweeping reforms that paved the way for extraordinary growth. Das traces these developments and tells the stories of the major players from Nehru through today. As the former CEO of Proctor & Gamble India, Das offers a unique insider’s perspective and he deftly interweaves memoir with history, creating a book that is at once vigorously analytical and vividly written. Impassioned, erudite, and eminently readable, India Unbound is a must for anyone interested in the global economy and its future.

Download or read book Magnetic Personality Arvind Kejriwal written by Arvind Mohan Dwivedi and published by Diamond Pocket Books Pvt Ltd. This book was released on 2014-02-11 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ÿArvind Kejriwal, the founder of the common man politics, is true to be called an uncommon man, who came into the active politics not with a big bang but slowly, steadily and firmly not to rule over the people but on their hearts and to teach the real meaning of the democracy. He is not a common man since childhood but taken birth in a common family and lived very commonly but acted so uncommonly to achieve milestone awards like Raman Magsaysay in so early age. The achievement in the Indian politics which is jumbled with a lot of hassles and dangers that the most of us do not dare to tread in it and call it "the last refuge of a scoundrel", "A job of Dirty People" and many more dirty words. But it is Arvind Kejriwal who has disproved these myths joining politics and opening the doors for a common man to enter into it. Donation of his prize money to an NGO, PCRF, a Delhi-based NGO that works for just, transparent, accountable and participatory governance had already shown the glimpse of the goal of Arvind Kejriwal to fight against corruption, not to become a CM. "Parivartan", uses of Right to Information Act in many corruption cases, participation in "Jan Lokpal Bill Andolan with Anna Hazare", are the activities he used to eradicate the corruption earlier. He established the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in 2012 to crush the solid armor of the corrupt politics and the result is on everyone's mouth at the end of 2013. He is the personality who hasn't crossed forty five years of his life but his benchmark activities, rushed the pens of more than fifty years old, from all over the world, to write for him. He is in ÿreality the real hero who realized all the real means to eradicate the corruption, must be a real inspiration for the generations to come.
Download or read book State Community and Neighbourhood in Princely North India c 1900 1950 written by I. Copland and published by Springer. This book was released on 2005-04-26 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ian Copland's aim in this book is to explain why, during the colonial period, the erstwhile Indian 'princely' states experienced per capita significantly less Muslim-Sikh and Muslim-Hindu communal violence than the provinces of British India, and how the enviable situation of the states in this respect became eroded over time. His answers to these questions shed new light on the growth of popular organisations in princely India, on relations between the Hindu and Sikh princes and the communal parties in British India, and on governance as a factor in communal riot production and prevention.

Download or read book The Mertiyo Rathors of Merto Rajasthan written by Richard Saran and published by U OF M CENTER FOR SOUTH ASIAN STUDIES. This book was released on 2021-01-19 with total page 853 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Me?tiyo Ra?ho?s of Me?to, Rajasthan is a treasure for scholars of Rajput history. Richard D. Saran and Norman P. Ziegler, whose contributions to Rajput studies are well known to specialists in the field, have given us a work of deep and exacting scholarship. It is the culmination of decades devoted to the study of Middle Marwari chronicles from Rajasthan. The sources translated here provide access to the fortunes of a branch of the Jodhpur royal family, and in doing so they illuminate the larger world of Rajputs in the middle period. The Me?tiyo Ra?ho?s are significant for several reasons. Their story traces the emergence of a Rajput brotherhood into local prominence and follows the establishment of their kingdom on the eastern edge of Marva? as a defined territorial unit. The evolution of the Me?tiyos as a brotherhood passed through several clearly defined stages, including a relationship with the house of Jodhpur that ranged from mutual support among brothers to hostility and clear separation. A study of the Me?tiyos in this context provides a unique view of the formation of a strong and indpenedent Rajput cadet line, of the establishment and defense of a local territory, and of the internal relations among Rajput brotherhoods regarding issues of precedence, honor, patronage, and service. The translations are accompanied by an extensive explanatory apparatus taking various forms, which includes a valuable essay on Rajput social organization, complete genealogies, and biographies of all the major personages of the chronicles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report analyses all aspects of cultural diversity, which has emerged as a key concern of the international community in recent decades, and maps out new approaches to monitoring and shaping the changes that are taking place. It highlights, in particular, the interrelated challenges of cultural diversity and intercultural dialogue and the way in which strong homogenizing forces are matched by persistent diversifying trends. The report proposes a series of ten policy-oriented recommendations, to the attention of States, intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations, international and regional bodies, national institutions and the private sector on how to invest in cultural diversity. Emphasizing the importance of cultural diversity in different areas (languages, education, communication and new media development, and creativity and the marketplace) based on data and examples collected from around the world, the report is also intended for the general public. It proposes a coherent vision of cultural diversity and clarifies how, far from being a threat, it can become beneficial to the action of the international community.
