Jawaharlal Nehru was Plato's philosopher king, who 'discovered' an India that remains an undiscovered possibility. Nehru and the Spirit of India is a critical and nuanced perusal of his intellectual and political legacy. From the 'politics of friendship' between Nehru and Sheikh Abdullah, Nehru's defense of secularism in the Constituent Assembly Debates, to what propelled Nehru to curb free speech in the First Amendment, Manash Firaq Bhattacharjee draws from political history to illuminate fierce debates in India today: Kashmir, the CAA, and hate speech. Be it contemporary events like the miracle of Ganesha drinking milk and the use of Vedic astrology in Chandrayaan-2, or the agonising suicide of a doctor, the author examines the fractured nature of Indian modernity, which Nehru had suggestively called a 'garb'. Bhattacharjee bolsters Nehru's view that India is enriched by the encounter of cultures and that we must not discard the past, but engage with it. As a second-generation refugee, Bhattacharjee argues for a 'minoritarian' approach to national politics. Breaking ideological and disciplinary protocols, he compels us to learn from the insights of poets and thinkers. Lucidly written, this provocative book offers an original perspective on Nehru and Indian history.

&Lsquo;Jahanbegloo&Rsquo;S India Is A Dialogical India. It Is In Conversation Not Only With Modernity But Also With Itself.&Rsquo; &Mdash;Ashis Nandy The Essential And Enduring Consciousness That Animates The Indian Nation Has For Long Eluded Definition. In This Fascinating Exposition, Eminent Iranian Political Philosopher Ramin Jahanbegloo Elucidates His Understanding Of This Enigmatic &Lsquo;Spirit Of India&Rsquo;. To Him, The Vital Principle Inspiring Indian Thought And Action Is The Spirit Of Dialogue And Cross-Cultural Debate, Deeply Rooted In The Daily Practices Of Different Communities. In Contrast To Many Cultures That Have, Through History, Feared Diversity As Being Destructive, India&Rsquo;S Plural And Polyphonic Forces Have Been A Source Of Creative Power. The Significant Question That Encapsulates The Spirit Of The Nation Has Always Been: What Should Our Behaviour Towards Others Be To Achieve Harmony And Solidarity? Dogmatism And Fundamentalism Have Therefore Not Been The Final Victors In India&Rsquo;S Functioning Pluralistic Society. To Illustrate His Viewpoint, Ramin Jahanbegloo Examines The Thinking Of Indians Who Shaped And Exemplified The Indian Credo&Mdash;Mahatma Gandhi, Rabindranath Tagore, Jawaharlal Nehru, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, Vinoba Bhave, Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, Sri Aurobindo, Ananda Coomaraswamy And Satyajit Ray. It Is Their Sustained Faith In Peaceful Diversity That Impassioned Leaders Like Sarojini Naidu, Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan And Many Others, And Continues To Be Indispensable To The Future Of A Humanity Threatened By Ever-Widening Schisms. The Spirit Of India Not Only Inspires Dialogue And Clemency Between Divergent&Mdash;And Occasionally Hostile&Mdash;Cultural And Religious Units, But Also Counteracts All Forms Of Political And Cultural Homogenization. This Book Illuminates Why And How, In Order To Manage Our Plural World, We Need To Acknowledge And Nurture The Redoubtable Vitality Of India.

Shashi Tharoor delivers an incisive biography of the great secularist who—alongside his spiritual father, Mahatma Gandhi—led the movement for India’s independence from British rule and ushered his newly independent country into the modern world. The man who would one day help topple British rule and become India’s first prime minister started out as a surprisingly unremarkable student. Born into a wealthy, politically influential Indian family in the waning years of the Raj, Jawaharlal Nehru was raised on Western secularism and the humanist ideas of the Enlightenment. Once he met Gandhi in 1916, Nehru threw himself into the nonviolent struggle for India’s independence, a struggle that wasn’t won until 1947. India had found a perfect political complement to her more spiritual advocate, but neither Nehru nor Gandhi could prevent the horrific price for independence: partition. This fascinating biography casts an unflinching eye on Nehru’s heroic efforts for, and stewardship of, independent India and gives us a careful appraisal of his legacy to the world.
