Download or read book Gandhi written by Kathryn Tidrick and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2013-07-02 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout his long and turbulent career as a political leader, first in South Africa and then in India, Gandhi sought to fulfil his religious aspirations through politics and to reconcile politics with personal religious conviction. But Gandhi’s religion was wildly divergent from anything to have taken root in his native India. Foremost among his private tenets was the belief that he was a world saviour, long prophesied and potentially divine. Penetrating and provocative, Kathryn Tidrick’s book draws on neglected material to explore the paradoxes within Gandhi’s life and personality. She reveals a man whose spiritual ideas originated not in India, but in the drawing rooms of late-Victorian England, and which included some very eccentric and damaging notions about sex. The resulting portrait is complex, convincing and, to anyone interested in the legacy of colonialism, more enlightening than any previously published. The Gandhi revealed here is not the secular saint of popular renown, but a difficult and self-obsessed man driven by a messianic sense of personal destiny.

Book Synopsis Gandhi and Indian Independence by : Dr. Padma Ramakrishnan
Download or read book Gandhi and Indian Independence written by Dr. Padma Ramakrishnan and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2021-06-14 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several years after his assassination, Mahatma Gandhi remains an elusive figure - discomfiting and difficult to comprehend. In this book, Dr Padma Ramakrishnan gives great weight to Gandhi's role in Indian Independence and assesses his influence and triumphs. She has appraised the role of Mahatma Gandhi in the transfer of power from the point of view of a political scientist. The book is analytical and objective - presenting Gandhi as a political leader, not as a visionary. The author analyses the politics of negotiation in her chapters on the Shimla Conference, the Cabinet Mission Plan, and Interim Government. In the chapter "Gandhi and the Partition of India”, she concludes that it was not Gandhi who was responsible for the partition of India. This is a distinct contribution to the scholarly output of Gandhian studies.

Terchek offers a completely original interpretation of his subject's political thought.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gandhian Thought Can Be Evaluated In Two Perspectives. One Is What Gandhi Basically Stands For. He Distrusted Industrialism And Had The Courage To Decry Industrialization With Mass Production Even When It Was At Its Peak. In That Spirit Gandhian View Of Human Society Is An Alternative To Modern Industrial Society.In The Other Perspective, Gandhian Thought Is Evaluated In Terms Of The Needs And Requirements Of The Existing Society And An Attempt Is Made To Reinterpret It To Suit Those Requirements. In This Endeavour, The Basic Spirit Of Gandhian Ideals, Very Often, Is Sacrificed Or Compromised.The Present Book Gandhian Theory Of Social Reconstruction Analyses Gandhian Thought In The First Perspective And Thereby Provides A Rational And Viable Framework Of Post-Industrial Human Society After Gandhian Ideals.It First Establishes That There Is The Need To Find An Alternative To Industrial Society And That The Alternative Could Be Based On Spirituality. The Concept Of Spirituality Is Discussed Here In Secular And Sociological Terms Avoiding All Jargons Of Various Religions And Philosophy.Further, The Book Propounds A New Unconventional Classification Of Human Motivation Encompassing The Entire Gamut Of Motivational Urge.It Also Introduces The Concept Of Soul Force As A New Dimension To The Realms Of Theory And Practice Of Social Reconstruction. This Is Based On The Awakening Of The Soul To Its Potential Or Force That Gives Strength To The Individual At Least To Uphold One S Dignity And Self-Respect Which Are Being Violated In The Present Society Whether Of The West Or Of The East. For Creating And Sustaining Soul Force, This Theory Provides Appropriate Instruments And Methods.The Book Also Outlines The Constitution Of A Non-Violent Society Incorporating Such Ingredients As May Lead To The Emergence Of A Non-Violent And Spiritual Social Order. The Book Then Goes On To Discuss The Method Of Non-Violent Action In The Manner Of A Process As A Gandhian Technique For Conflict Resolution, Fighting Against Social Injustice And Exploitation And Rebuilding The New Society.One May Ridicule The Theory As Utopian. But The Goals Should Always Be Set On The Highest Side Even Though They May Never Be Realized In Their Completeness. One Should Constantly Try To Reach Them As High As Possible To The Best Of One S Capacity. The Goals Should Never Be Set On The Lower Level.This Book Opens Up Many New Vistas For Research And Joins The Current Debate In Political And Economic Fields On Social Reconstruction Going On Since The Second World War And More So After The Collapse Of Communism In Soviet Russia And The 9/11 Events That Have Agitated The Human Conscience.

Book Synopsis POST-INDEPENDENCE INDIA (1947-2022) - A PERSPECTIVE by : R. S. Ahuja
Download or read book POST-INDEPENDENCE INDIA (1947-2022) - A PERSPECTIVE written by R. S. Ahuja and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2023-03-09 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: POST-INDEPENDENCE INDIA (1947-2022)—A PERSPECTIVE is the story of the nation’s challenges, failures, turmoil, and of her weathering all storms to emerge as a stable secular democracy, thwarting the pressures of the powerful countries. The perspective portrayed here is based on the author’s personal experiences and observations of major events and processes substantiated by extensive readings on the subject. The book details India’s trials and triumphs since her independence 75 years ago. It has been a checkered saga in realizing the dream of uplifting the fate of a population of over a billion people with diverse religions, faiths, beliefs, languages, cultures. All while constantly facing two not so friendly neighbors – Pakistan and China, threatening along the western and northern borders. Far from a textbook of history, this book would be of interest to both - the Indian diaspora growing up around the world, and to anyone curious about the Indian subcontinent’s multidimensional history. The narration is set in the backdrop of Undivided India’s struggle for freedom after 190 years of British domination and the socio-political realities of the pluralistic nation of India. It showcases the fight for independence and the Partition of 1947 that created two nations—India and Pakistan, the latter breaking up again to create the nation of Bangladesh in 1971.
