This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1965, The Culture and Civilisation of Ancient India in Historical Outline is a strikingly original work, the first real cultural history of India. The main features of the Indian character are traced back into remote antiquity as the natural outgrowth of historical process. Did the change from food gathering and the pastoral life to agriculture make new religions necessary? Why did the Indian cities vanish with hardly a trace and leave no memory? Who were the Aryans – if any? Why should Buddhism, Jainism, and so many other sects of the same type come into being at one time and in the same region? How could Buddhism spread over so large a part of Asia while dying out completely in the land of its origin? What caused the rise and collapse of the Magadhan empire; was the Gupta empire fundamentally different from its great predecessor, or just one more ‘oriental despotism’? These are some of the many questions handled with great insight, yet in the simplest terms, in this stimulating work. This book will be of interest to students of history, sociology, archaeology, anthropology, cultural studies, South Asian studies and ethnic studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the civilizations of the ancient world, several have left their mark on history. The glory and grandeur of most of them are now memories of the past, but India alone of the several sisters has survived the ravages of time and preserved and propagated her cultural heritage in spite of military hurricanes and political cataclysms. Indian literature and art are eloquent as regards the cultural institutions of ancient India, which were transmitted to posterity by a sound system of education, and here lies the cause of the survival of India and her heritage. It is, therefore, interesting and rewarding to study the origin and development of this culture which enjoys and unbroken continuity till today. Such a study provides concrete data for the investigation into the human civilization as a whole. The aim of the present work is to describe and interpret the genius of India and explain her contribution to the world s culture. The author who is a versatile scholar has traced the origin of the Indian civilization to a remote past, through his original research and he has not blindly followed earlier writers, particularly from the west. He has carried on his readers with his conviction that the current of Indian culture has flowed through the ages, reinforced by time spirit at every stage, without being untrue to itself or losing its soul in the sweeping current. The work comprises two volumes, each dealing with an aspect of culture from the evolutionary as well as from the comparative point of view. The first volume deals with education in the fullest and highest sense of the term, the second volume deals with education in the fullest and highest sense of the term, the second volume deals with Indian Polity through the ages. The learned author has made an attempt to sketch, in the light of the original sources, the public life in India from the earliest ages down to the beginnings of British rule. The chronological aspect has been kept in mind so as to bring out the evolution of institutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When India became independent in 1947 after two centuries of colonial rule, it immediately adopted a firmly democratic political system, with multiple parties, freedom of speech, and extensive political rights. The famines of the British era disappeared, and steady economic growth replaced the economic stagnation of the Raj. The growth of the Indian economy quickened further over the last three decades and became the second fastest among large economies. Despite a recent dip, it is still one of the highest in the world. Maintaining rapid as well as environmentally sustainable growth remains an important and achievable goal for India. In An Uncertain Glory, two of India's leading economists argue that the country's main problems lie in the lack of attention paid to the essential needs of the people, especially of the poor, and often of women. There have been major failures both to foster participatory growth and to make good use of the public resources generated by economic growth to enhance people's living conditions. There is also a continued inadequacy of social services such as schooling and medical care as well as of physical services such as safe water, electricity, drainage, transportation, and sanitation. In the long run, even the feasibility of high economic growth is threatened by the underdevelopment of social and physical infrastructure and the neglect of human capabilities, in contrast with the Asian approach of simultaneous pursuit of economic growth and human development, as pioneered by Japan, South Korea, and China. In a democratic system, which India has great reason to value, addressing these failures requires not only significant policy rethinking by the government, but also a clearer public understanding of the abysmal extent of social and economic deprivations in the country. The deep inequalities in Indian society tend to constrict public discussion, confining it largely to the lives and concerns of the relatively affluent. Drèze and Sen present a powerful analysis of these deprivations and inequalities as well as the possibility of change through democratic practice.
