As the Indian independence movement progressedfrom the economic critique of colonial rule by the early nationalists, to the unequivocal demand for Purna Swaraj and the immense moral authority of the Mahatma Gandhi-led resistancethe notion of an equal society that ensured dignity to all irrespective of caste, class, gender or religioncame to occupy a central place in it. By the time the Constituent Assembly met in December 1946, not just civil rights, but the particular rights of women, of minorities, of the Depressed Classes and the Adivasis were being articulated and demanded, not as favours but as a matter of course.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. In 1989, many countries of Central and Eastern Europe came out of the socialist order and began moving into a new world defined by neoliberal economic and political systems. The experience of rupture from the past and the desire to become part of a new and more secure socio-economic order have excited critical intellectual and political imaginations. The book examines how these imaginations help construct Ideas of Order in these national locations. The idea of the order has its social location and variables, i.e., political (nation, empire), and cultural (religion) and the book shows how they colour articulation of an order. The Book examines the way a 'national order' emerges at a time when global financial and European transnational orders are celebrated.

The importance of Russia's national assertions also, as the book examines, looms large in the region's political imagination. Written by a trained historian with insight into the contemporary history of the region and the world, the book, based on intensive fieldwork, presents some of the major frames shaping the Idea of Order influenced as they are by the socio-economic and cultural histories of different intellectual and academic locations in the Centre and Eastern Europe.…
