Hardback. Zustand: New. What is the nation? What is the idea of India? Whose India is it, anyway? This inaugural volume in the series titled Rethinking India aims to kickstart a national dialogue on the key questions of our times. It brings together India's foremost intellectuals, academics, activists, technocrats, professionals and policymakers to offer an in-depth exploration of these issues, deriving from their long-standing work, experience and unflinching commitment to the collective idea of India, of who we can and ought to be. Vision for a Nation: Paths and Perspectives champions a plural, inclusive, just, equitable and prosperous India, committed to individual dignity as the foundation of the unity and vibrancy of the nation.In order to further disseminate these ideas-the vision for the nation as aspirationally reflected in the Constitution-this book provides a positive counter-narrative to reclaim the centrality of a progressive, deeply plural and forward-looking and inclusive India.

In Time Warps the Insistent Politics of Silent and Evasive Pasts Ashish Nandy argued that his work can be seen as an adventure in one kind of time travel where one mainly uses or invokes the past to shape the contemporary. In the present collection he reverses that journey. Using the metaphor of the future imagined utopias conceptions of cultural possibilities social critiques of things to come Nandy redefines the present.
