Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, commonly known as Mahatma Gandhi, authored the book "Indian Home Rule" in 1909. Gandhi outlines his goals for Indian freedom from British colonialism and self-rule in the book. Gandhi believes that civil disobedience and nonviolent resistance are the only effective ways for Indians to change the unfair and oppressive nature of British rule over their country. In his opinion, India's independence is not just a moral need but also a political one. Gandhi also touches on the need of eschewing Western consumerism and the necessity of achieving economic self-sufficiency. Gandhi explains his well-known Satyagraha philosophy, which is founded on nonviolent resistance and peaceful protest, in the book. He emphasizes the significance of utilizing moral pressure rather than physical pressure to bring about social and political change. Global human rights groups, particularly the American human Rights Movement headed by Martin Luther King Jr., were influenced by Gandhi's beliefs on nonviolent resistance. "Indian Home Rule" serves as a potent rallying cry for Indian independence and self-government. It outlines Gandhi's plan for making India a free, independent, and peaceful country and outlines how to get there via nonviolent resistance and civil disobedience.

Móhandás Karamčand Gándhí (1869–1948), všeobecně známý pod symbolickým jménem Mahátma (Velký Duch), je dodnes inspirativní osobností, jehož autobiografie si právem zasluhuje pozornosti čtenářů. To, co Gándhího text přesahuje, je usilování o pravdivý a smysluplný život. Každý zájemce o téma v něm může najít, co ho zaujme a motivuje: pro mnohé jsou to už jen de facto „donquijotské“ životní hodnoty, které však Gándhí v neuvěřitelné míře aktivně realizoval, a přitom byly vedeny jeho pokorou a skromností, ale i cílevědomostí vzhledem ke službě vlastnímu národu a ve vztahu k sobě samému. Gándhího úplnou autobiografii pro české prostředí poprvé v úplnosti připravil kolektiv vedený prof. PhDr. Michaelou Hashemi, CSc.; revizi indických reálii provedl indolog PhDr. Jan Filipský, CSc.

The gripping story of Indira Gandhi’s premiership—and the profound influence she had on India  Indira Gandhi’s ascent as prime minister of India in 1966 was entirely unforeseen. But she soon emerged as one of the most powerful political leaders of her times, who transformed the world’s largest democracy. She served as prime minister for a remarkable fifteen years, leaving behind a complex and deeply controversial legacy.  In this fascinating account, Srinath Raghavan tells the story of Indira Gandhi’s political career and the momentous changes that India experienced under her leadership. From her tentative start in high office to her remarkable electoral victories, the dark days of the Emergency of 1975–77, and her assassination at the hands of her bodyguards in 1984, Raghavan sheds new light on her politics and government, as well as on her adversaries and critics. He shows how the 1970s were the hinge on which the history of the country turned—and how Indira Gandhi transformed the new postcolonial nation into the India of today.

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, justly venerated as a Mahatma, dismantled the mightiest empire in world history through the inspirational power of three pivotal mass campaigns across two decades. In 1920 Gandhi liberated Indians from fear through the unprecedented mass mobilization of the non-cooperation movement. In 1930 he turned a pinch of salt into a metaphor for the punitive, heartless colonial exploitation of the impoverished. The 1942 call to 'Quit India' sent a final, unambiguous message to foreign overlords: Indians would prefer to die rather than live in British fetters. Once Gandhi had unchained India, history could no longer remain dormant. Akbar draws on historical archives and contemporary narratives to vividly depict the mass ferment and individual protest that swept across the subcontinent. The combination of meticulous scholarship with riveting storytelling, make Gandhi in Three Campaigns an unmissable fresh portrait of an icon and a time.

''Magisterial'' - The Financial TimesAn updated edition of Ramachandra Guha''s India After Gandhi with new material that explains the major events, policy shifts and controversies of the past decade, placing them in their proper sociological and historical context and setting out the author''s justifiable concerns for the decline of democracy in India.Born against a background of privation and civil war, divided along lines of caste, class, language and religion, independent India emerged, somehow, as a united and democratic country. Ramachandra Guha’s hugely acclaimed book tells the full story – the pain and the struggle, the humiliations and the glories – of the world’s largest and least likely democracy.While India is sometimes the most exasperating country in the world, it is also the most interesting. Ramachandra Guha writes compellingly of the myriad protests and conflicts that have peppered the history of free India. Moving between history and biography, the story of modern India is peopled with extraordinary characters. Guha gives fresh insights into the lives and public careers of those long-serving Prime Ministers, Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi. But the book also writes with feeling and sensitivity about lesser-known (though not necessarily less important) Indians – peasants, tribals, women, workers and musicians.Massively researched and elegantly written, India After Gandhi is a remarkable account of India’s rebirth, and a work already hailed as a masterpiece of single-volume history. This third edition brings the story fully up to date.

Towards the end of 1906, a meeting took place between two emerging giants of the age, Mohandas K. Gandhi and General Jan Christian Smuts. United under the same empire, but separated by distance and culture, Smuts was born in the Cape Colony, and Gandhi in Porbandar, a duchy of the Indian province of Gujarat. Both, however, went on to study law in Britain, and while developing a great admiration for the institutions of empire, each man also suffered his own particular crisis of faith. From their widely dispersed origins, Gandhi and Smuts collided over the issue of race and equality in a turbulent province of the empire, each attempting to hold the British to their stated ideals. This insightful book explores attitudes to race, and belonging, in an age when the English speaking peoples straddled the globe, and sought to impose on all of their subject races, basking under the radiance of Britannia, a common ideal of parity, equal opportunity and free movement.
