Much of the recent surge in writing about the practice of nonviolent forms of resistance has focused on movements that occurred after the end of the Second World War, many of which have been extremely successful. Although the fact that such a method of resistance was developed in its modern form by Indians is acknowledged in this writing, there has not until now been an authoritative history of the role of Indians in the evolution of the phenomenon. Celebrated historian David Hardiman shows that while nonviolence is associated above all with the towering figure of Mahatma Gandhi, 'passive resistance' was already being practiced by nationalists in British-ruled India, though there was no principled commitment to nonviolence as such. It was Gandhi, first in South Africa and then in India, who evolved a technique that he called 'satyagraha'. His endeavors saw 'nonviolence' forged as both a new word in the English language, and a new political concept. This book conveys in vivid detail exactly what nonviolence entailed, and the formidable difficulties that the pioneers of such resistance encountered in the years 1905-19.

The Noncooperation Movement of 1920-22, led by Mahatma Gandhi, challenged every aspect of British rule in India. It was supported by people from all levels of the social hierarchy and united Hindus and Muslims in a way never again achieved by Indian nationalists. It was remarkably nonviolent. In all, it was one of the major mass protests of modern times. Yet there are almost no accounts of the entire movement, although many aspects of it have been covered by local-level studies. This volume both brings together and builds on these studies, looking at fractious all-India debates over strategy; the major grievances that drove local-level campaigns; the ways leaders braided together these streams of protest within a nationalist agenda; and the distinctive features of popular nonviolence for a righteous cause. David Hardiman's previous volume, The Nonviolent Struggle for Indian Freedom, examined the history of nonviolent resistance in the Indian nationalist movement. The present volume takes his study forward to examine the culmination of this first surge of struggle. While the campaign of 1920-22 did not achieve its desired objective of immediate self-rule, it did succeed in shaking to the core the authority of the British in India.

This book is a tribute to the symbiotic relation between Gandhi and Bombay, a relation that spanned and strengthened over decades. The city had welcomed him warmly on his return from South Africa in 1915 and this warmth never receded. Bombay has earned a special place in the history of India's freedom struggle under Gandhi's leadership. In 1919, it was Gandhi's first nationwide protest, the Satyagraha against the unjust Rowlatt Act in Bombay that propelled him to the position of an undisputed leader. Bombay was also the site for the launch of the Non-cooperation movement in 1920. The response of the city to Gandhi's Salt March in 1930 and his call for the Quit India movement in 1942 was unprecedented. It was in Bombay that Gandhi gave the historic mantra of 'Do or Die'. Protests, processions, meetings, picketing, and strikes organized under his name drew people from all sections of the society. Gandhi's important movements were intertwined with the life of this city and its people. Gandhi was full of determination and the city with vibrancy; this amalgam resulted in the powerful synergy that made history. Bombay became the nerve centre of Gandhi's political activities and agitations. Drawing on primary sources from the Maharashtra State Archives as well as archival materials and photographs, and using Bombay as a focal point, this volume narrates the story of the man and his struggle for the nation's independence.

The Power of Nonviolence, written by Richard Bartlett Gregg in 1934 and revised in 1944 and 1959, is the most important and influential theory of principled or integral nonviolence published in the twentieth century. Drawing on Gandhi's ideas and practice, Gregg explains in detail how the organized power of nonviolence (power-with) exercised against violent opponents can bring about small and large transformative social change and provide an effective substitute for war. This edition includes a major introduction by political theorist, James Tully, situating the text in its contexts from 1934 to 1959, and showing its great relevance today. The text is the definitive 1959 edition with a foreword by Martin Luther King, Jr. It includes forewords from earlier editions, the chapter on class struggle and nonviolent resistance from 1934, a crucial excerpt from a 1929 preliminary study, a biography and bibliography of Gregg, and a bibliography of recent work on nonviolence.

This illustrated book explores an almost forgotten episode in the history of India's struggle to become independent, freed from being part of the British Empire. The events described in it took place largely in London between 1905 and 1910. They were centred on India House, a Victorian mansion in Highgate, a suburb of London, and were orchestrated by Shyamji Krishnavarma, Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, and other Indian freedom fighters. Adam Yamey's volume discusses a brief but exciting part of the long fight to make India a sovereign nation several years before Mahatma Gandhi became significantly involved in it. The author also reveals the story behind the modern replica of the former India House, which has been constructed in Kutch, a part of western India.
