Spanning the 19th and 20th centuries, this intellectual tradition blends resistance to imperial rule with radical socio-religious reform, fundamentally reshaping the subcontinent’s political consciousness, civil rights frameworks, and national identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSocial and political thought is linked with the interplay of factors involving society,\u003cbr\u003eeconomy and politics. Political thought is a generalized term which comprises all\u003cbr\u003ethoughts, theories and values of a person or a group of persons or a community on state\u003cbr\u003eand questions related to the state. The purpose of this introduction is not merely to\u003cbr\u003edocument the political ideas of those thinkers who changed the course of India’s freedomstruggle, but also to analyse the socio-historical contexts in which these ideas evolved\u003cbr\u003eand also the socio-political changes that these ideas aimed at. Since the book is about\u003cbr\u003emodern Indian political thought, it’s obvious focus is on ideas that critically influenced\u003cbr\u003ethe articulation of nationalism in India. Even before nationalism emerged as a dominant\u003cbr\u003eideology, there was a long tradition of political thought which provided specific\u003cbr\u003eperspectives in which several thinkers interpreted their views and ideas on different\u003cbr\u003easpects. Two major thinkers, Kautilya (Ancient) and Zia-ud-din-Barani (Medieval)\u003cbr\u003erepresenting two different periods of Indian socio-political life put forward their views\u003cbr\u003emost systematically and ideologically.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Indian Hobby Center","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44137356886059,"sku":null,"price":617.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/6796\/1387\/files\/SOCIALANDPOLTHOUGHTINMODERNINDIA.jpg?v=1780051677","url":"https:\/\/www.indianhobbycenter.com\/products\/social-and-political-thought-in-modern-india-by-shefali-tondon-hardcover-old-book","provider":"Indian Hobby Center","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
