Reasoning Indian Politics
Philosopher Politicians to Politicians Seeking Philosophy
Häftad, Engelska, 2019

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This volume examines the multiple forms of reasoning in Indian politics and explores a framework to understand them. In the process, it looks at a series of issues involving the relationship between politics and philosophy, including the status of political theory, political practices, identity politics, and political ontology. The book argues that in the years leading up to and soon after independence, the task of conceptualizing politics was largely in the domain of practising politicians who built theories and philosophical methods, and further took those visions into the practice of their politics. It maintains that Indian politicians since then have not been as inclined to articulate their theories or methods of politics. This book traces the transition from philosopher politicians to politicians seeking philosophy in Indian polity in the post-independence era and its implications for current practices. It views Indian political philosophy from the standpoints of political theorists, philosophers, and practitioners. With expert and scholarly contributions, this volume will be of interest to students and researchers of Indian political thought and political philosophy, social sciences, and humanities.

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book critically examines various facets of conflicts involving people and the state arising due to the uneven distribution of natural resources. It provides an overview of the people’s movements in Odisha, a resource-rich state in eastern India. Reflecting on the conceptual frameworks of conflict, it analyses violence, and struggle for rights over resources, and public policies around natural resources, alongside local strategies and governance.Drawing from extensive field surveys in the villages of Kalahandi and undivided Koraput districts in Odisha, this volume explores the sociopolitical and economical aspects of people’s movements instead of solely viewing them as political and security threats. The authors demonstrate the misappropriations of these movements by both the state and non-state actors for their vested interests. This book offers recommendations for policymakers to draw up a more ready response to mitigate and minimize the conflict and violence and implement equitable policies around land and resources. While doing so, the book also provides some primers to development perspectives, the role of natural resources and conditions under which the natural resources can result in conflict, and principles and practices to overcome such conflicts.The volume will be an indispensable read for researchers and students of social history, social reform, tribal and indigenous studies, postcolonial studies, exclusion studies, development studies, political sociology, and South Asian studies.
