  • Rahul Sagar, Hindu Nationalists and the Cold
    Chapter Ten Hindu Nationalists and the Cold War Rahul Sagar It is generally accepted that during the Cold War divergences between “hope and reality” rendered India and America “estranged democracies.”1 Te pre- cise nature of the Indo- American relationship during these decades remains a subject of fruitful study. For instance, Rudra Chaudhuri has argued that the Cold War’s many crises actually prompted India and the United States to “forge” a more nuanced relationship than scholars have realized.2 Tis chapter does not join this discussion. It examines a diferent side of the story. Rather than study the workings of the Congress Party–afliated political and bureaucratic elite in power during the Cold War, it focuses on the principal Opposition—the ideas and policies of the Hindu Mahasabha, the Jan Sangh, and the Bharatiya Janata Party (bJP), which have championed the cause of Hindu nationalism. Te Cold War–era policies of these parties have not been studied carefully thus far. A common assumption is that these parties had little to say about international afairs or that, to the extent that they had something to say, their outlook was resolutely militant. Tis chapter corrects this misperception. It shows that these parties’ policies alternated between being attracted to and being repulsed by the West. Distaste for communism and commitment to democracy drove them to seek friendship with the West, while resentment at U.S. eforts to contain India as well as fears about ma- terialism and Westernization prompted them to demand that the West be kept at a safe distance. 229 false sTarTs Surprisingly little has been written about the diversity of Indian views on international relations in the Cold War era.

  • Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya
    Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya Who is Deendayal Upadhyaya? \n\n \n Deendayal Upadhyaya was born in a poor family in Nagla Chandrabhaan village near Mathura, UP, on 25 September, 1916. \n As a child, Deendayal had to face the profound grief of several deaths in the family. Deendayal moved from place to place and completed his masters degree. He was introduced to RSS and became a full timer in the late 1930s. \n Deendayal was a prolific writer and a successful editor. He wrote a number of books including Samrat Chandragupt and Jagatguru Shankaracharya, and an analysis of the Five Year plans in India. \n He was deputed to work in the Jana Sangh by Shri Golwalkar when the party was founded in 1951 by Dr Syama Prasad Mukherjee. From then till 1967 he remained the Jana Sangh All India General Secretary. \n It was during this time that he propounded the political philosophy of Integral Humanism. It is now 50 years since the Jana Sangh adopted Integral Humanism as its political-economic manifesto. \n Deendayal Upadhyaya died on February 11, 1968 under mysterious circumstances at the age 52. The murder of Pandit Deendayal still remains unresolved. \n \n\n What are some of his ideals? \n\n \n The concept of Integral Humanism he propounded envisages remedies for the post-globalisation maladies of the world. \n Upadhyaya conceived a classless, casteless and conflict-free social order. He stressed on the ancient Indian wisdom of oneness of the human kind. \n For him, the brotherhood of a shared, common heritage was central to political activism.

  • Remembering Deendayal Upadhyay
    Remembering Deendayal Upadhyay Why in news? \n\n \n The country is commemorating the birth centenary celebrations of Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay. \n A scrutiny at his principles and philosophies, and their relevance in present day India thus becomes essential. \n \n\n Who is Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay? \n\n \n Born in Mathura, UP in 1916, Deendayal Upadhyay is an Indian politician. \n He was one of the most important leaders of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh, the forerunner of the present day Bharatiya Janata Party. \n He qualified the civil services examination, where he got his nickname as Panditji for appearing in the examination hall wearing traditional dhoti-kurta and cap. \n He however did not join the service, but became in 1942, a life-time volunteer of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). \n However, Upadhyaya is seen to have played a larger role in India’s thought process and political life, transcending party lines. \n \n\n What are his key philosophies? \n\n \n Integral humanism - Deendayal Upadhyay is best remembered for his principle of "integral humanism" which is defined as "a classless, casteless and conflict-free social order". \n It talks about the integration of indigenous "Indian culture" with the social, political and economic fabric of the nation. \n It provides for a holistic idea of human welfare. \n It envisions a synthesis of materialism, spiritualism and cautious desire, as each have a role in achieving happiness. \n And that an economic index cannot be the sole measure of satisfaction or happiness. \n Bharat - He wanted to decolonise Indian political thought as he felt that the Indian intellect was getting suffocated by Western theories.

I thank my supervisors Dr. Yasmin Khan and Dr. Oliver Heath for their careful guidance, constant support and enthusiasm over these years. Thanks is also due to Dr. James Sloam for his insights at important stages of this project. Finally I would like to thank Dr. Tony Charles for his valuable support in the final stages of this work. I thank Dr. Nathan Widder under whose leadership the Department of Politics and International Relations has been a supportive environment and congenial forum for the development of ideas and Dr. Jay Mistry, Dr. Ben O'Loughlin, Dr. Sandra Halperin and Anne Uttley for the important roles they have played in my development as an academic scholar. Finally, thanks is due to my fellow researchers, Shyamal Kataria, Baris Gulmez, Didem Buhari, Celine Tschirhart, Ali Mosadegh Raad, Braham Prakash Guddu and Mark Pope for the many useful conversations and sympathetic understanding. This project would have not been possible but for the help of my family. I would like to thank my parents Abraham and Valsa Joseph as well as George and Annie Mathew for their constant encouragement and eager support.
