Soft cover. Zustand: New. 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 c…aste, 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. As the editor of this volume writes in his brilliant introduction, the effect of the speeches delivered by the leaders of our national movement was to focus 'political action towards scripting an ennobling nationalism that would give us a just and equal society'. Building a Free India brings together these landmark speeches delivered over roughly a century by the leading lights of the national movementfrom Naoroji, Surendranath Banerjee, Bhikaiji Cama, Lajpat Rai and Tilak, to Gandhi, Nehru, Ambedkar, Bose, Sarojini Naidu and Maulana Azadas well as a range of lesser-known but equally remarkable figures. This unprecedented collection is not only an invaluable history of our freedom movement but also of the ideas of universal equality, dignity and justice that areand must always remainat the root of our democracy.
