NOTES TO CHAPTER TWO: POLITICAL SOCIETY IN INDIA

Gandhi had said, 'I feel that our progress towards the goal will be in exact proportion to the purity of means.' Quoted by Raghavan N. Iyer, The Moral and Political Thought of Mahatma Gandhi (New York: Oxford University Press, 1973) p. 362. But once the use of proper means was established, Gandhi was very determined on the type of social and political consequences he wanted from the use of such means. 2 M. K. Gandhi, Satyagraha (Allahabad: All India Congress Committee, 1935) p. 37. 3 Erik Erikson, Gandhi's Truth: On the Origins of Militant Non- Violence (London: Faber & Faber, 1970). 4 Erik Erikson has called Gandhi 'a religious actualist' who was drawn to action by the highest normative considerations which often make people withdrawn. See in this connection his Gandhi's Truth: On the Origins of Militant Non- Violence, p. 396. 5 Gandhi wrote in 1920, 'I have found Englishmen amenable to reason and persuasion, and as they always wish to appear just, it is easier to shame them than others in doing the right thing.' Quoted by B. R. Nanda, Mahatma Gandhi: A Biography (: Beacon Press, 1958) p. 516. The technique which he developed against the British did not work against the Portuguese on the question of Goa where unarmed freedom fighters used to be mowed down by Portugese machineguns. In this connection Morarji Desai is reported to have said that it was Gandhi's genius to have discovered what would work against the British: non-violence and moral embarrassment. 6 Ibid., p. 211. 7 See in this connection, 'Mahatma Gandhi and Civil Disobedience' by Paul F. Power in Meaning of Gandhi, ed. Paul F. Power (Honolulu: University of Hawaii Press, 1971). 8 Jawaharial Nehru, The Discovery of India (London: Meridian Books, 1946) p.

Das, The Political Philosophy ofJawaharlal Nehru (New York: John Day, 1961). 13 Ibid., p. 21. 14 Ibid., p. 99. Notes 189

15 See for an extensive discussion of the peculiarities of the growth of political capacity, and factors inhibiting it in various countries, my Political Capacity in Developing Societies (London: Macmillan, 1981). 16 Quoted by M. N. Das, Political Philosophy ofJawaharlal Nehru, p. 167. 17 Geoffrey Tyson has put this appropriately: 'he knew that the vast amorphous mass which is India could only be governed and held together by a series of compromises; a concession here, a special exception there'. Nehru: The Years of Power (London: Pall Mall Press, 1966) p. 188. 18 One of the finest expressions of this view came from the Balwatray Mehta Committee Report on democratic decentralisation. In that Nehru was quoted as follows: 'to build the community and the individual and to make the latter the builder of his own village centres and ofIndia in a larger sense of the term'. Quoted by Balwatray Mehta Committee Report: Report of the Team for the Study of Community Projects and National Extension Service (New Delhi, 1957) p. 3. 19 See in this connection D. V. Tahmankar, Sardar Patel (London: George Allen and Unwin, 1970). 20 A. R. H. Copley, The Political Career if C. Rajagopalachari: A Moralist in Politics (Delhi: Macmillan, 1978) p. 4. 21 Quoted by R.

NOTES TO CHAPTER THREE: NORMATIVE-PRAGMATIC CONSIDERA TIONS

In the 1960s, in a rural community ofGujarat, in western India, a number of definitions of what the lokshahi (democracy) was all about, emerged. Some of these were recorded by me. See in this connection my Democracy and Political Change in Village India (New Delhi: Orient Longman, 1971). 2 In this respect India did not experience the threat of rival ethical notions implicit in political liberalism, which in turn are themselves rooted in the Judeo-Christian ethical system. Hinduism, being a belief system with emphasis on inclusion, synthesis and relativism, did not feel threatened by rival ethical imperatives. On the contrary, educated Hindus were deeply fascinated by the values implicit in political liberalism. They even welcomed its egalitarian and participatory emphasis which appeared to be a much-needed corrective to the hierarchical notions of their own social organisation. Political liberalism, therefore, was welcomed by them to fight the deeply institutionalised inequality in their social system. 190 Notes

K. Gandhi, 'Last Will and Testament' in Pyrelal, Mahatma Gandhi, The Last Phase (Ahmedabad: Navjivan Press House, 1956) vol. II, pp. 819--20. This document was prepared by Gandhi a week before he was assassinated. In it he had expressed grave reservations over a national movement, like the Congress, converting itself into a party organisation. He was certain that men in it would abuse their position by using political office for personal gain. 14 M. K.

To Mahatma Gandhi as well as toJP, 'the citizen has an inalienable right to Notes 191

civil disobedience'. See in this connectionJayprakash Narayan, 'Testament of Protest', Far Eastern Economic Review (20 Feb. 1976). 25 JP exhorted the police as follows: 'do your duty but do not act against your conscience'. Towards Total Revolution, vol. IV, p. 101. And his message to the army consisted of the following reminder: 'it is the duty of the army, to defend the Constitution of the country from authoritarian threats. If any party government or party leader intends to use the army as a means to further their party interests, it is the clear duty, to my mind, of the army, not to be so used.'

NOTES TO CHAPTER FOUR: PROBLEMS OF POLITICAL SOCIETY

'The creation of an Islamic state in South Asia ... was not the work of clerics and religious divines but rather the determined effort by informed, westernized, materially conditioned elements .. .'

Ralph Braibanti, Research on the Bureaucracy in Pakistan (Durham, NC: Duke University Press, 1966) p. 342. II 'During its rule the BE [Bureaucratic elite] had capitalized on the 192 Notes

disorganization of other elite groups by using the colonial philosophy of divide and rule. It made no effort to develop political institutions but through its generalist role-expansion kept other elite groups (except military) dependent on itself.'

Beeri maintained in his Army Officers in Arab Politics and Society that 'Islam endows army with prestige and authority of an institution meriting divine blessing and its heritage paves the way for military intervention which is to be regarded most fitting and proper in the eyes of God and man'.
