NOTES The advent of the Europeans for the purpose of trading eventually led to the invasion of India by the British who ruled over India for a long time. The World War I and World War II played an important role in arousing the spirit of nationalism among people. Various freedom fighters fought for the independence of the country in their own way. The Indian independence struggle included various political organizations, philosophies and movements. All of them aimed at ending the British rule in India. The Indian National Congress, along with Mahatma Gandhi, played a major role in the Indian national movement. Indian independence movement was fuelled by two ideologies—modernism and extremism. Both these ideologies strived for Poorna Swaraj but in different ways. Finally, India became independent on 15 August 1947 and became a republic on 26 January 1950 when the Constitution of India was enforced. During this period of struggle, India witnessed the arrival of several social and political thinkers. Early thinkers like Rammohan Roy, Dayanand Saraswati and Vivekananda show the path to new thoughts and acted as catalysts to a new awakening. They were followed by people, such as, Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak, V. D. Savarkar and Keshav Baliram Hedgewar, to mention a few. This book discusses in detail the ideologies of thinkers mentioned above and many more. The book critically assesses the socio-political and economic factors that led to the rise of these thinkers. This book, Modern Indian Political Thought, has been designed keeping in mind the self-instruction mode (SIM) format. It follows asimple pattern, wherein each unit of the book begins with theIntroduction followed bythe Unit Objectives for the topic. The content is then presented in a simple and easy-to-understand manner and is interspersed with Check Your Progress questions to reinforce the student’s understanding of the topic. A list of Questions and Exercises is also provided at the end of each unit. The Summary, Key Terms andActivityfurther act as useful tools for students and are meant for effective recapitulation of the text.

Western conquest exposed the weakness and decay of Indian society. Thoughtful Indians began to look for the defects in their society and for ways and means of removing them. While large number of Indians refused to come to terms with the West and still put their faith in traditional Indian ideas and institutions, others gradually came to hold that modern Western thought provided the key to the regeneration of their society. They were impressed in particular by modern science and the doctrines of reasons and humanism. Moreover, the new social groups—the capitalist class, the working class, the modern intelligentsia—demanded modernization since their own interests demanded it. The arrival of this intellectual renaissance in India has been a great causal factor in the rise of modern Indian nationalism.

    Aspects of Indian Modernity: a Personal Perspective

    ASPECTS OF INDIAN MODERNITY: A PERSONAL PERSPECTIVE MOHAN RAMANAN University of Hyderabad, India [email protected] 75 I There are two Indias. One is called Bharat, after a legendary King. This represents a traditional culture strongly rooted in religion. The other is India, the creation of a modern set of circumstances. It has to do with British rule and the modernities set in motion by that phenomenon. India as a nation is very much a creation of the encounter between an ancient people and a western discourse. The British unified the geographical space we call India in a manner never done before. Only Asoka the Great and Akbar the Great had brought large parts of the Indian sub- continent under their control, but their empires were not as potent or as organized as the British Empire. The British gave India communications, railways, the telegraph and telephones; they organized their knowledge of India systematically by surveying the landscape, categorizing the flora and fauna and by dividing the population into castes and religious groupings. Edward Said has shown in his well- known general studies of the colonial enterprise how this accumulation of knowledge is a way of establishing power. In India the British engaged themselves in this knowledge accumulation to give themselves an Empire and a free market and a site to work their experiments in social engineering. This command of the land also translated into command of the languages of the people. British scholars like G.U. Pope and C.P. Brown, to name only two, miscelánea: a journal of english and american studies 34 (2006): pp.

  • Chapter I Introduction

    Chapter I Introduction

    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Nonviolence is the pillar of Gandhi‘s life and work. His concept of nonviolence was based on cultivating a particular philosophical outlook and was integrally associated with truth. For him, nonviolence not just meant refraining from physical violence interpersonally and nationally but refraining from the inner violence of the heart as well. It meant the practice of active love towards one‘s oppressor and enemies in the pursuit of justice, truth and peace; ―Nonviolence cannot be preached‖ he insisted, ―It has to be practiced.‖ (Dear John, 2004). Non Violence is mightier than violence. Gandhi had studied very well the basic nature of man. To him, "Man as animal is violent, but in spirit he is non-violent.‖ The moment he awakes to the spirit within, he cannot remain violent". Thus, violence is artificial to him whereas non-violence has always an edge over violence. (Gandhi, M.K., 1935). Mahatma Gandhi‘s nonviolent struggle which helped in attaining independence is the biggest example. Ahimsa (nonviolence) has been part of Indian religious tradition for centuries. According to Mahatma Gandhi the concept of nonviolence has two dimensions i.e. nonviolence in action and nonviolence in thought. It is not a negative virtue rather it is positive state of love. The underlying principle of non- violence is "hate the sin, but not the sinner." Gandhi believes that man is a part of God, and the same divine spark resides in all men. Since the same spirit resides in all men, the possibility of reforming the meanest of men cannot be ruled out.

    INCLUSIVE EDUCATION AND SCHOOL REFORM IN POSTCOLONIAL INDIA Mousumi Mukherjee MA, MPhil, Calcutta University; MA Loyola University Chicago; EdM University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Education Policy and Leadership Melbourne Graduate School of Education University of Melbourne [5 June 2015] Keywords Inclusive Education, Equity, Democratic School Reform, Girls’ Education, Missionary Education, Postcolonial theory, Globalization, Development Inclusive Education and School Reform in Postcolonial India i Abstract Over the past two decades, a converging discourse has emerged around the world concerning the importance of socially inclusive education. In India, the idea of inclusive education is not new, and is consistent with the key principles underpinning the Indian constitution. It has been promoted by a number of educational thinkers of modern India such as Vivekananda, Aurobindo, Gandhi, Ambedkar, Azad and Tagore. However, the idea of inclusive education has been unevenly and inadequately implemented in Indian schools, which have remained largely socially segregated. There are of course major exceptions, with some schools valiantly seeking to realize social inclusion. One such school is in Kolkata, which has been nationally and globally celebrated as an example of best practice. The main aim of this thesis is to examine the initiative of inclusive educational reform that this school represents. It analyses the school’s understanding of inclusive education; provides an account of how the school promoted its achievements, not only within its own community but also around the world; and critically assesses the extent to which the initiatives are sustainable in the long term.

    Modi's First Speech in Parliament June 2014 Honourable Madam Speaker

    Modi’s first speech in Parliament June 2014 Honourable Madam Speaker, I am in this house for the first time today. My entry is also new, and the opportunity to give a speech is also happening for the first time. The parliamentary traditions of this House have been very high. There are many senior veterans in this House who are very experienced. Veterans with an experience of three or four decades in which they have raised the questions/problems of the nation, resolved them, and consistently worked hard for the nation, are sitting in this house today. When a new person like me says something, there may be some lapses in maintaining the dignity and decorum of the House. For being new, you will forgive those lapse, I am fully certain. 01:40 More than 50 respected members of the Lok Sabha presented their opinions on the President's speech. I heard almost all the speeches, some while sitting in the House and some while sitting in my room. Respected Mallikarjunaji, eespected Mulayam Singhji, respected Dr Thambhiduraiji, Bhartuhariji, leaders of Trinamool Congress. I heard the veterans. It is true that a tone was conveyed, that “you have said a lot of things but how will you do it ? When will you do it ?” I believe that the right topic is touched, and it is very natural for these questions to be raised. I will recount an experience of mine In Gujarat. I had just become the new Chief Minister in Gujarat. Once I said in the house, “I want to provide electricity in the villages of Gujarat 24 hours a day”.
