Book excerpt: Contrary to the assumption that the 1950 Constitution of India is a verbatim reproduction of the 1935 Government of India Act, the book pursues the argument that it is an outcome of ideational battle since the beginning of institutionalized British rule in India in the mid-eighteenth century.Initiated by Edmund Burke, who while impeaching the British ruler of India, Warren Hastings, strongly argued, in a rather paternalistic fashion, for the colonizers to govern India in accordance with the enlightenment values. It was a beginning which was followed as a matter of principle by thesuccessive British administrations in India. The influence gradually became so well-entrenched that Indian nationalists were voluntarily drawn to the values that the Enlightenment Philosophy had transmitted while administering India. It was evident in the ideas of the moderate extremistnationalists, which were also imbibed by Mahatma Gandhi and B.R. Ambedkar when they articulated their vision for an independent India.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Constitutional democracy is both a structure of governance and a way of providing an ideological perspective on governance. The 1950 Constitution of India established constitutional democracy in India and the narrative of the rise and consolidation of constitutional democracy in India cannot be understood without comprehending the politico-ideological processes that consolidated simultaneously both colonialism and constitutional liberalism. This book examines the processes leading to constitutionalizing India and challenges the conventional idea that the Constitution of India is a borrowed doctrine. A careful study of the processes reveals that the 1950 Constitution was the culmination of an ideational battle that had begun with the consolidation of the British Enlightenment philosophy in the early days of British paramountcy in India. The book therefore argues that constitutionalizing endeavour in India had a clear imprint of ideas which had its root in this philosophy. The study reveals a striking continuity of the same kind of ideological sentiments when the nationalists devised their own constitutionalizing design, visible in the 1928 Motilal Nehru report and which reappeared in the 1945 Sapru Committee report. Deviating from the conventional study of constitutional evolution of a polity, which is generally legalistic, this book explores the processes since the beginning of colonial rule in India which led to the conceptualization of constitutional democracy in a milieu engaging with arguments formulated by James and JS Mill. A detailed analysis of the roots of constitutional and political liberalism in India, this book sheds light on the material surrounding India’s constitutional development. It will be of interest to scholars in the field of Indian Political Theory, South Asian Politics and History.

Download or read book India s Constitutional Identity written by Bidyut Chakrabarty and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis of selective aspects of India’s constitutional identity, this book provides an analytical account of the changing and changed texture of India’s constitutional identity bearing in mind the historical context in which it is articulated. The book conceptualizes the gradual evolution of an idea by tracing the history of India’s constitutionalism with reference to its conceptual roots, historical antecedents and the landmark judicial pronouncements in which the concern for its retention and protection is always privileged. The author examines specific constitutional designs that the 1950 Constitution of India put in place and argues that constitutional identity, despite being drawn on specific constitutional provisions, is also changeable in view of the rapidly transforming socio-economic milieu. He demonstrates that there are numerous instances where India’s constitutional identity has undergone a metamorphosis in circumstances where newer politico-ideological values and norms are privileged. A valuable addition to the literature on constitutionalism and constitutional practices in general and their manifestation in India's democratic experiences, in particular, this book will be of interest to academics in the fields of Government, Political Science, Law and Jurisprudence, Constitutional and Legal History and Asian Studies.

This book was released on 2021-09-10 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Constitutional Amendments in The Indian Constitution (A Horizontal Approach) The book presents a careful study of Amendments of the Indian Constitution and for that, a cut-section approach has been adopted. In this book, the study of Constitutional Amendments has been presented in an easy and systematic way by adopting a chronological approach to the amendments in various parts. Only those provisions of the Constitution have been selected which have remained more prone to amendments. The factors responsible for the amendments along with their consequences have also been studied. Some of these amendments were enacted to ensure the smooth working of the Constitutional system, and some of these amendments were enacted in reaction to changing social and political environment. But unfortunately, some of the amendments were enacted to gain political mileage or to fulfill personal interest only. On several occasions, when the Parliament has tried to impose its political will on the nation by amending the Constitution in an arbitrary manner, the Judiciary has tried to uphold the letter and spirit of the Constitution by declaring some amending provisions as ‘unconstitutional. This book would be very helpful for undergraduate and postgraduate students, academicians, legal practitioners as well as the common man.
