Collected Papers on Gandhian Thought

Auszug

The volume on Collected Papers on Gandhian Thought contains Twenty Eight papers and is an expanded version of my earlier book, Essays on Gandhian Socio-Economic Thought. These papers reflect my understanding, explanation, and interpretation of Gandhian thought and programme. Through them I have, in all humility, tried to discuss some of the aspects of the truly oceanic thought of M. K. Gandhi, who has been acknowledged by the whole world as „the man of the Twentieth Century“.
Many philosophers, scientists, military leaders, and others believe that the Gandhian Alternative Paradigm holds a great promise for the survival of the present endangered civilization. At the same time, Gandhi is often misunderstood, misinterpreted, and misrepresented. There is, therefore, a continuous need for explaining the content and relevance of Gandhian thought. The present book seeks to help to achieve this task.
