Gandhi and Anarchy is a detailed analysis of Mahatma Gandhi's relationship with and attitude towards anarchism, written by eminent lawyer and activist of the Indian national movement, Chettur Sankaran Nair. In this book, the author examines the philosophy of anarchy and the principles of nonviolent resistance that became the basis of the anti-colonial movement in India.
Sankaran Nair highlights the complex aspects and paradoxes that arose in the interaction between Gandhi and anarchist ideas. He reveals how Gandhi combined the principles of self-reliance and autonomy with a belief in civil rights and a desire for social justice.
This book not only opens a new perspective on Gandhi's role in Indian history, but also encourages the reader to rethink the concepts of anarchism and peaceful resistance. Gandhi and Anarchy is a must-read for anyone interested in history and political philosophy."
