The United States and India--the most powerful and the most
populous constitutional democracies, respectively--have more in
common than is apparent from a casual comparison of life in, say,
Agra and Omaha. While the material circumstances of an average
family in the one city may be dramatically different from the
circumstances of its counterpart in the other, the political
cultures that protect and sometimes encroach upon the freedoms of
each family are in many ways remarkably similar. The arrogant
ambitions of one of Agra's representatives in New Delhi can likely
find a match in the designs of one of Omaha's legislators in
Washington, D.C. So, too, could we expect to find sincere concern
for their constituents in the hearts of other political figures on
Capitol Hill and in the Subcontinent. In this probing critical
comparison of political culture in the United States and India,
Professor Brij Mohan argues that much can be learned about the
parochial roots and global expansion of representative government
by studying both the successes and the failures--both the promise
and disappointment--of these two great experiments in
constitutional democracy.
