Book excerpt: The Present Work Contends That Guided By The Politico-Economic Transnational Practices, Globalization Has Emerged As A Totalizing Process In Terms Of Both Hegemonic Structures And Homogenizing Cultural Traits. It Is An Ideological Derivative, Rather, A Neo-Liberal Reincarnation Of The Earlier Conceptualizations Of Progress, Growth-Obsessed Industrialization, Modernization, Glorification Of The Invisible Hand Of The Market, Objectification Of Nature And An Instrumental Treatment Of Humanity. The Work Further Contends That Gandhi Is The First Major Political Thinker-Activist To Have Challenged The Arrogant Imperialist West-Centric Model Of Development. Gandhi S Critique, It Is Argued, Is Not A Romantic Declaration Of War On The Consequences Of Progress, But A Revolt Against Its Hegemonizing Political Essence And Its Ever-Spiralling Politico-Economic Ambitions Of Dominating The World.

Book excerpt: Using a multidisciplinary approach, contributors to this volume explore the significance of John Dewey s Pragmatism for the contemporary world. They examine such issues as whether Classical Pragmatism justifies global democracy, whether Dewey s idea of democracy so intimately linked to American culture has any relevance for other cultures, and whether democracy can take other forms than those found in Europe and America. Contributors focus on Dewey s cross-cultural experience and affinities with Descartes and modern Neo-Confucians to provide a glimpse of how Dewey s influence outside America has stimulated other cultures, heralding a new stage in the growth of Pragmatism.
