Download or read book India After Gandhi The History of the World s Largest Democracy written by Ramachandra Guha and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 927 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.

There are many Gandhian scholars around the world but Kumar is peerless. What sets Kumar apart from the other scholars is that like Gandhi he is Indian, and he understands the culture and customs behind the teachings and the philosophy. One can never study Gandhi and try to separate him from his ethnology. He is a noteworthy researcher. Kumar s interpretation of Gandhi and his ideas is outstanding. Kumar, an educator who has authored over a hundred books, has emerged as one of the great thinkers of our time, and a leading Gandhian scholar. In this book he articulates on Satyagraha, the Sustainable Culture of Peace and how the Gandhian philosophy applies in current international conflicts, Sudan, Myanmar, Iraq, Iran, and outer countries. The book also addresses the fundamental question, is Gandhi relevant today? This book should be a required reading for all individuals who are interested in peace and the Gandhian theory. This book is a necessary read.

Download or read book The Indian Ideology written by Perry Anderson and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2021-07-13 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The historiography of modern India is largely a pageant of presumed virtues: harmonious territorial unity, religious impartiality, the miraculous survival of electoral norms in the world’s most populous democracy. Even critics of Indian society still underwrite such claims. But how well does the “Idea of India” correspond to the realities of the Union? In an iconoclastic intervention, Marxist historian Perry Anderson provides an unforgettable reading of the Subcontinent’s passage through Independence and the catastrophe of Partition, the idiosyncratic and corrosive vanities of Gandhi and Nehru, and the close interrelationship of Indian democracy and caste inequality. The Indian Ideology caused uproar on first publication in 2012, not least for breaking with euphemisms for Delhi’s occupation of Kashmir. This new, expanded edition includes the author’s reply to his critics, an interview with the Indian weekly Outlook, and a postscript on India under the rule of Narendra Modi.
Download or read book Conquest of Violence written by Joan Valerie Bondurant and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Mahatma Gandhi died in 1948 by an assassin's bullet, the most potent legacy he left to the world was the technique of satyagraha (literally, holding on to the Truth). His "experiments with Truth" were far from complete at the time of his death, but he had developed a new technique for effecting social and political change through the constructive conduct of conflict: Gandhian satyagraha had become eminently more than "passive resistance" or "civil disobedience." By relating what Gandhi said to what he did and by examining instances of satyagraha led by others, this book abstracts from the Indian experiments those essential elements that constitute the Gandhian technique. It explores, in terms familiar to the Western reader, its distinguishing characteristics and its far-reaching implications for social and political philosophy.

Download or read book India in the Shadows of Empire written by Mithi Mukherjee and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-11-25 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the postcolonial Indian polity by presenting an alternative historical narrative of the British Empire in India and India's struggle for independence. It pursues this narrative along two major trajectories. On the one hand, it focuses on the role of imperial judicial institutions and practices in the making of both the British Empire and the anti-colonial movement under the Congress, with the lawyer as political leader. On the other hand, it offers a novel interpretation of Gandhi's non-violent resistance movement as being different from the Congress. It shows that the Gandhian movement, as the most powerful force largely responsible for India's independence, was anchored not in western discourses of political and legislative freedom but rather in Indic traditions of renunciative freedom, with the renouncer as leader. This volume offers a comprehensive and new reinterpretation of the Indian Constitution in the light of this historical narrative. The book contends that the British colonial idea of justice and the Gandhian ethos of resistance have been the two competing and conflicting driving forces that have determined the nature and evolution of the Indian polity after independence.

Download or read book I Am the Father of the Nation written by Sabita Paintal and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Should we wait for another Mahatma Gandhi to be born and guide the nation to the right track to follow, or should we develop our mental ability to understand his ideology and create harmony in the world? I am in favor of the second option, but the decision is personal. I have visited many places in India and visualized that there is an urgent need to reopen the pages of the history of the independence of India as the new generation has lost track. There is a need to reawake the people with the sacrifices of our great revolutionary leaders. Among them, the priority is on one name, that is Gandhiji, the Father of the Nation, and if the people are ignorant and innocent about his sacrifices for his country, then I feel that we should not to be humiliated but should revive his whole ideology in a simple form for the common people and others to understand it thoroughly. It is a matter of pride that Gandhiji became successful with his firm and fearless attitudes, cooperation of the masses, and with his ideology of nonviolence and truthfulness, which was highly praised throughout the world. I am, The Father Of The Nation is a book to provide us strength for fearless attitudes, firmness toward our hidden qualities, appreciation toward truthfulness, love for our country, praises for our own culture, positive attitude toward humanity, and above all, the right decisions at the right time. All the chapters in the novel cover the above statements positively and proved that there is no need to wait for another Gandhi to be born again if we are on the track of Mahatma Gandhi's ideology. I have elaborated each chapter of the novel with the theories of Gandhiji and related it with the stories of the common people. By this hope that not only will people find the book interesting but it will leave an everlasting impact on the personalities of the readers.
