Gandhi (1869-1948) was one of the few men in history to fight
simultaneously on moral, religious, political, social, economic,
and cultural fronts. During his time as a lawyer in South Africa he
developed his strategy of non-violence: the idea of opposing unjust
laws by non-violent protest, which he made the basis of his
successful struggle against British rule in India. In this Very
Short Introduction to Gandhi's life and thought, Bhikhu Parekh
outlines both Gandhi's major philosophical insights and the
limitations of his thought. He looks at Gandhi's cosmocentric
anthropology, his spiritual view of politics, his unique form of
liberal communitarianism, and his theories of oppression,
non-violent action, and active citizenship. He also considers how
the success of Gandhi's principles was limited by his lack of
coherent theories of evil, and of state and power, and how his
hostility to modern civilization impeded his appreciation of its
complexity. Gandhi's life and thought has had an enormous impact
both within and outside India, and he continues to be widely
revered, as one of the greatest moral and political leaders of the
twentieth century.
