Book excerpt: This engaging new biography dispels many myths surrounding Nehru, and distinguishes between the icon he has become and the politician he actually was. Benjamin Zachariah places Nehru in the context of the issues of his time, including the central theme of nationalism, the impact of Cold War pressures on India and the transition from colonial control to a precarious independence. How did Jawaharlal Nehru come to lead the Indian nationalist movement, and how did he sustain his leadership as the first Prime Minister of independent India? Nehru's vision of India, its roots in Indian politics and society, as well as its viability have been central to historical and present-day views of India. Connecting the domestic and international aspects of his political life and ideology, this study provides a fascinating insight into Nehru, his times and his legacy.

Book excerpt: Among the few great statesmen to emerge in Asia, Jawaharal Nehru achieved a national metamorphosis in some ways even more astonishing than that of another towering patriarch, Mao Tse-tung.

Book excerpt: Here is a study of a key twentieth-century statesman: Jawaharlal Nehru (1889-1964), one of the Indian nationalists who led India to independence in 1947, and, as Prime Minister from 1947 until his death, steered her through her early, formative years as one of the world's great nations.

Download or read book Jawaharlal Nehru written by Sarvepalli Gopal and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indira Gandhi described Jawaharlal Nehru as a "generous and gracious human being who summed up in himself the resurgence of the Third World as well as the humanism which transcends dogmas." One of the modern world's most articulate statesmen, Nehru wrote on a wide variety of subjects. A Renaissance man who described himself as "a dabbler in many things," he devoted his life not only to politics but also to nature and wildlife, drama, poetry, history, and science. Published originally in three volumes, Gopal's biography of Nehru is the most scholarly and authoritative work to have appeared on Nehru. Its value lies in its comprehensiveness: it does not look exclusively at Nehru's politics or his inner life and psychology, but shows how Nehru's mind was shaped by Indian politics, by colonialism, and by his birth within an elite professional class. The latter shows how he in turn shaped Indian politics and the economic development of democratic India.
Download or read book The Political Philosophy of Jawaharlal Nehru written by M N Das and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2024-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1961, The Political Philosophy of Jawaharlal Nehru is an attempt to coordinate Jawaharlal Nehru's ideas which, in essence, reflect his political philosophy. Nehru distinguished himself as a philosopher-politician, thinking somewhat as a philosopher while working as a politician, steering his political ideas between idealism and realism. In an eventful life, his had been the many-sided role of a revolutionary and a nationalist, a democrat and a socialist, an internationalist and a pacifist, a head of the government and, above all, a lone individual and thinker. Nehru preserved his individuality through all external influences, including those of Gandhi and Marx, and it is this which remains the keynote of his thought. It has been the aim of the author to present in an objective way the ideas of the man in the light of his own words as available from a wide range of material. This book will be of interest to students of history, political science, and philosophy.
