This book was released on 2013-09-19 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1955 and 1956 the Government of India passed four Hindu Law Acts to reform and codify Hindu family law. Scholars have understood these acts as a response to growing concern about women's rights but, in a powerful re-reading of their history, this book traces the origins of the Hindu law reform project to changes in the political-economy of late colonial rule. The Hindu Family and the Emergence of Modern India considers how questions regarding family structure, property rights and gender relations contributed to the development of representative politics, and how, in solving these questions, India's secular and state power structures were consequently drawn into a complex and unique relationship with Hindu law. In this comprehensive and illuminating resource for scholars and students, Newbigin demonstrates the significance of gender and economy to the history of twentieth-century democratic government, as it emerged in India and beyond.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his struggle for combating 'graded inequality', Dr. Ambedkar opted a strategy to remain the part of process in reformation rather than agitating or complaining from outside. Probably, the 'Hindu Code Bill' was last an attempt of Dr. Ambedkar to reform 'graded inequality' of Hinduism from within. Since from the beginning of his political career, Dr. Ambedkar was criticizing Hinduism for inbuilt inequality, but tried to bring reformation. There occurred the incidences where his movement had reached at crossroad and in clear conflict with two Congress leaders. First at Poona-pact with Mahatma Gandhi which ended with 'Consensus compromise', and second at 'Hindu Code Bill' with Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru which ended with 'fractured faith' of Dr. Ambedkar. The author has attempted to analyze the struggle of Dr. Ambedkar against the 'graded inequality' comparing the major two events of his campaign i.e., the Poona-Pact & Hindu Code Bill. It has further examine with his strategic approach he adopted in Poona-pact of reaching to 'consensus compromise' and remaining for transformation from within, and finally he forced to adopt in Hindu Code Bill controversy to 'opt-out' and have non-optional 'conversion' and reformation from outside the system. At both these incidences, his movement was at crossroad with other the then eminent leaders, but in former, the outcome was not much harsh and adverse but in latter, it was too harsh to rectify the loss in reaching the common consensus of eliminating 'graded inequality'. The author has also tried to make appraisal of impact of Hindu code Bill controversy on the further of struggle against the 'graded inequality' in Hinduisms and Indian politics. The conclusions in this respect are self-explanatory.

Download or read book Our Hindu Rashtra written by Aakar Patel and published by Penguin Random House India Private Limited. This book was released on 2022-10-24 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India has taken so sharp a turn in recent years that the very centre has shifted considerably. What led to this swing? Is it possible to trace the path to this point? Is there a way back to the just, secular, inclusive vision of our Constitution-makers? This country has long been an outlier in its South Asian neighbourhood, with its inclusive Constitution and functioning democracy. The growth of Hindutva, in some sense, brings India in line with the other polities here. In Our Hindu Rashtra, writer and activist Aakar Patel peels back layer after layer of cause and effect through independent India's history to understand how Hindutva came to gain such a hold on the country. He examines what it means for India that its laws and judiciary have been permeated by prejudice and bigotry, what the breach of fundamental rights portends in these circumstances, and what the all-round institutional collapse signifies for the future of Indians. Most importantly, Patel asks and answers that most important of questions: What possibilities exist for a return? Thought-provoking and pulling no punches, this book is an essential read for anyone who wishes to understand the nature of politics in India and, indeed, South Asia.
