Hardcover. Zustand: New. Today we live in a world of unimaginable change and undeniable progress. No generation earlier has seen so much development in so short a time. How does the development that we see around us affect us? How is it related to our rootedness or freedom? How does it enhance our freedom? How can we foster a de…velopment that is rooted in tradition and open to the new? Can we dream of a humane and all-inclusive development that does justice to humanity? These are some of the questions that we take up in this volume, which tries to relate human development to freedom. The articles in this volume are contextual, hermeneutical and philosophical. Since they are contextual, we deal with the issues mainly from Indian perspectives. So the articles are necessarily multi-disciplinary. It takes into account the cultural and religious diversity and ambiguities of contemporary India. It is also hermeneutical, since most of the articles attempt at appropriating the perennial wisdom of India for the current situation. These articles are philosophical, since they analyse, critique the situation of tradition, freedom and development. These articles reflect on of the depth of tradition that India is proud of, the vigour and vitality of its democratic spirit and the longing for its integrated and holistic development. It is hoped that these articles will contribute to the ongoing discourse on modernity, development, tradition and freedom prevalent in the academic circles in India.
