Description

In this book, Ramin Jahanbegloo converses with twenty-seven leading Indian personalities-social scientists, journalists, activists, artists, and sports persons-to gain an understanding of contemporary Indian society.

Jahanbegloo, an Iranian-Canadian philosopher and Gandhi scholar, raises interesting questions about the seeming contradictions of life in India: the long history of religious tolerance juxtaposed with growing religious fundamentalism, democracy being challenged by a persistent caste system, the Indian ethos of equality contested by the low status of women, affluent urban areas that contrast with the impoverished rural tracts, among other issues.
