GANDHI AND THE WORLD BY NUTAN KAPOOR MAHAWAR & DHRUBAJYOTI BHATTACHARJEE [HARDCOVER]

Gandhian ideas and philosophy have had an undeniably towering influence and manifestation in modern history, both in India and the World. Gandhi has continued to inspire generations of social activists, political leaders, and thinkers across the social, political, economic, and environmental spectrum in different geographies. Gandhi’s relevance has stood the test of time in India through generations and has also traversed the length and breadth of the world. The 150th Birth Anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, therefore, provided an opportunity to constructively engage with Gandhian ideas and philosophy and their global impact. This volume brings together scholars from four continents (Asia, Europe, Latin America and Africa) who, through their writings, present an overview of their thoughts and interpretations of Gandhi, his life and his teaching.
