  • Kasturba-Gandhi.Pdf
    Kasturba Gandhi Aparna Basu Published by: Gandhi National Memorial Society, Agakhan Palace, Pune Kasturba Gandhi Preface This small book on 'Kasturba' owes its origin to the thought that the younger generation of boys and girls should come to know as much as possible the struggles, aspirations and hard work of ordinary simple women who have given shape to present day India. There was an extra ordinary galaxy of such women and their efforts should be recorded which will constitute a unique legacy for the future. Kasturba was one of these women who have left such an imprint on society. Gandhi is known all over the world as an apostle of Peace and Nonviolence and volumes of literature in almost all languages is published and followed on a world-wide scale. But very little is known about his wife Kasturba who played an important role of making Gandhi Eternal. Kasturba was an embodiment of simplicity and compassion. Bapu often used to say that his best workers had passed through kitchen fire under Ba's supervision and passed her test Kasturba took part in every satyagraha campaign and went to jail several times in South Africa and in India. Kasturba died on the evening of 22nd February 1944 at the Agakhan Palace Detention Camp on Bapu's lap and was cremated in the compound of the Detention Camp on 23rd February 1944. Bapu sat watching the funeral pyre till it was all over. Someone had suggested that he should go and rest He replied "This is the final parting, the end of 62 years of shared life.

  • Unit 13 Gandhi on Structural Violence
    UNIT 13 GANDHI ON STRUCTURAL VIOLENCE Structure 13.1 Introduction Aims and Objectives 13.2 Conflict and Violence 13.3 Direct and Indirect Violence 13.4 Structural Violence 13.5 Cultural Violence 13.6 Gandhi on Structural Violence 13.7 Preventing Structural Violence 13.8 Summary 13.9 Terminal Questions Suggested Readings 13.1 INTRODUCTION Mahatma Gandhi’s life and work embodies a unique vision of peace and non-violent activism. He not only abhorred wars and killings under any guise but also addressed the insidious ramifications of indirect violence embedded in the societal structures and cultures. His absolute disavowal of violence amid gravest of provocation makes him the most inveterate proponent of non-violent methods to achieve peace. Peace, he insisted, can only be brought about by the peaceful means. Unsurprisingly, the Gandhian vision led to multiple streams of thinking and action research in contemporary peace and conflict studies. In this Unit, we would take a closer look at some of his ideas, which exemplify his notion of peacebuilding as well, provide range of pedagogical tools to detangle peace studies and conflict analysis. One of the most significant Gandhian insights that has given a new dimension to our understanding of conflict and violence analysis is the notion of Structural Violence which continues to inspire new thinking in the area. Gandhi took a comprehensive view of violence and expanded its scope to include oppressive structures, which erode and damage human dignity and prevent human beings from achieving their full potentials. He included untouchability, racialism, communalism and gender-based discrimination as acts of violence against humanity.

  • The African Element in Gandhi
    The African Element in Gandhi By: Anil Nauriya First Edition: 2006 Electronic Version © Anil Nauriya First Edition (Hard Copy Version) Published by: National Gandhi Museum Rajghat, New Delhi-110002 Phones: 23311793, 23310168, 23328310 E-mail: [email protected] Web-site: www.gandhimuseum.org In association with: Gyan Publishing House New Delhi-110002 Phones: 23261060,23282060 Email: [email protected] Web-site: http://www.gyanbooks.com The African Element in Gandhi This book is a richly detailed account of the people and events surrounding Gandhi’s experience in Africa and its aftermath. It provides an original narrative of how Gandhi’s stance in relation to emancipatory struggles evolved over time, focusing especially on the period since the high noon of his South Africa days. The relationship between Gandhi, Africa and its leaders was mutually productive and symbiotic; a connection which has often been underanalysed. Through extensive examples and a close reading of documents from the era, the author makes clear the significance of passive or civil resistance as a strategy and traces some of its contours over Gandhi’s lifetime. The resulting book opens up fertile new areas of research and presents us with a holistic picture of the salience of Gandhi for Africans and Africa for Gandhi.
