Book Synopsis Congress and Indian Nationalism by : Richard Sisson
Download or read book Congress and Indian Nationalism written by Richard Sisson and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2024-07-26 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seventeen distinguished historians and political scientists discuss the phenomenon of Indian Nationalism, one hundred years after the founding of the Congress party. They offer important new interpretations of Nationalism's evolution during more than six decades of crucial change and rapid growth. As India's foremost political institution, the National Congress with its changing fortunes mirrored Indian aspirations, ideals, dreams, and failures during the country's struggle for nationhood. Many difficulties face by the pre-independence Indian National Congress are critically examined for the first time in this volume. Major times of crisis and transition are considered, as well as the tension between mass action and political control and the problem of creating and maintaining unity in the face of divisive social and economic interests and between deeply hostile religious communities. A composite portrait of the Congress Party emerges. We see a coalition of often conflicting communities and interests much like India itself, struggling to stay together, tenuously united by little more at times than a common "enemy," the imperial British Raj. But linked together in precarious, seemingly haphazard fashion, shifting networks of elite political entrepreneurs manage to keep India's National Congress alive long enough to convince the British that it would be easier to "Quit India" than to try to hang on to it by force. With the abrupt transfer of power form the British to the independent Dominions of India and Pakistan in 1947, Congress provided institutional sinews for the administration of what had been British India and over five hundred Princely States. By contributing to a deeper understanding of India's nationalist experience, this volume may illuminate the experience of other Third World states. Essays by:S. BhattacharyaJudith M.

Book Synopsis The Congress and Indian Nationalism by : John L. Hill
Download or read book The Congress and Indian Nationalism written by John L. Hill and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-04-07 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The celebration of the centenary of the Indian National Congress prompted a scholarly re-examination of that organization in the midst of an active international discussion about the nature of Indian society in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Any group of historians who come together to give fresh consideration to the Congress – its organization, leadership, ideology and support – also join in the wider debate going on in Indian history. This volume, first published in 1991, reflects such an engagement with the full range of contemporary discussion, representing not just scholarship in five different countries but also quite distinct historiographical traditions. It surveys the origins and development of the Congress from its inception to its development up to Independence.
Book Synopsis Indian Nationalism and the Early Congress by : John R. McLane
Download or read book Indian Nationalism and the Early Congress written by John R. McLane and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tracing the history of the Indian National Congress from its founding in 1885 until about 1905, Professor McLane analyzes its efforts to build a national community and to obtain fundamental reforms from the British. In so doing, he extends our understanding of the dynamics of Indian pluralism. In its first two decades of existence, the Congress failed to inspire sacrifices from its members or to attract Muslims or Indians without an English education. The author explains this early stagnation in terms of developments within the Congress as well as outside in Indian society. Originally published in 1978. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.

Book Synopsis The Emergence of Indian Nationalism by : Anil Seal
Download or read book The Emergence of Indian Nationalism written by Anil Seal and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1968-03-02 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume Dr Seal analyses the social roots of the rather confused stirrings towards political organisations of the 1870s and 1880s which brought about the foundation of the Indian National Congress. He is concerned not only with the politicians, viceroys and civil servants but with the social structure of those parts of India where political movements were most prominent at the time. The emphasis of this work is more upon Indian politics than upon British policy: the associations in Bengal and Bombay, the genesis of the Congress and the Muslim breakaway which accentuated the political divisions in India.
Book Synopsis Indian Nationalism and Political Awakening in 1920s by : Garima Prakash
Download or read book Indian Nationalism and Political Awakening in 1920s written by Garima Prakash and published by Gyan Publishing House. This book was released on 2004 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India of 1920 s was overflowing with sentiments of nationalism and patriotism. With the new methods of agitations like Satyagrah introduced by Mahatma Gandhi in 1920 s came a new hope to the countrymen. The Government of India Act of 1919 was essentially transitional in character. Dominion status for India was the thought for the day. But the appointment of an all White Statutory Commission and non-inclusion of Indias disappointed our political leaders and countrymen. Hope of those leaders dwindled from British Empire who had an undying faith in the administration of British. Apart from the political annoyance of this course, it was regared as a racial insult to have deliberately ignored Indian representation on it, as it was to decide the basis of the future constitution of India. The coming of Simon Commission to India in 1928 to investigate India s constitutional problems and to make recommendations to the Government in the future Constitution of India worked as a spark in the already tensed political arena of India. It was greeted with the strong protest in all parts of India and all assurances that the Government would consider the Indian view point in all matters was rejected. The Commission Report further infuriated the Indians and the national leaders and the call for Purna Swaraj was heard all over the country. This book covers all aspects of the appointment of Statutory Commission. The Historical Background. The Controversial Appointment, Political Awakening and Protest Meeting, Anti-Simonite Demonstrations, The Reports and the Reaction.
Book Synopsis Hindu Nationalism and the Language of Politics in Late Colonial India by : William Gould
Download or read book Hindu Nationalism and the Language of Politics in Late Colonial India written by William Gould and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-04-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book William Gould explores what is arguably one of the most important and controversial themes in twentieth-century Indian history and politics: the nature of Hindu nationalism as an ideology and political language. Rather than concentrating on the main institutions of the Hindu Right in India as other studies have done, the author uses a variety of historical sources to analyse how Hindu nationalism affected the supposedly secularist Congress in the key state of Uttar Pradesh. In this way, the author offers an alternative assessment of how these languages and ideologies transformed the relationship between Congress and north Indian Muslims. The book makes a major contribution to historical analyses of the critical last two decades before Partition and Independence in 1947, which will be of value to scholars interested in historical and contemporary Hindu nationalism, and to students researching the final stages of colonial power in India.
Book Synopsis Locality, Province and Nation by : John Gallagher
Download or read book Locality, Province and Nation written by John Gallagher and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 1973-07-26 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the steady growth of interest in the history of India under the British, interpretations have emerged, and they may sharply alter much of our thinking about Indian nationalism and British Imperialism. Some of these historical revisions, and the conclusions which may flow from them, are illustrated by the essays in this book. All of them grapple with questions of Indian political organization in different parts of the British Raj. They enquire how these organizations worked at different level; in the towns and in the countryside, in the provinces and in the subcontinent itself. They examine how these kinds of politics came to be bonded together into what were called 'nationalist' movements. They suggest that the interplay between these movements and British Imperialism was very much more ambiguous than has been commonly supposed. All these essays are preliminary announcements of findings which will later appear in longer versions.

Book Synopsis Indian Nationalism by : Jim Masselos

Book excerpt: This book gives a clear, comprehensive account of the complex factors which led to the rise and eventual success of Indian nationalism in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The groups and individuals responsible for inaugurating the first Western-style political organisations are examined against their social background, and the part played by the Indian National Congress in the struggle for Independence is then analysed in detail. The later chapters examine the emergence of Gandhi as a national leader and consider the success of the non-violent techniques which he espoused. The history concludes with the attainment of independence and traces developments in the successor nations up to the present day, Rajiv Gandhi as Prime Minister of India, the coming of V.P. Singh as Prime Minister, up to the assassination of Rajiv Gandhi in May 1991.
