It is well known fact that moderniy has always been explained and
understood by a set of objective conditions, institutional
formations and their transformation. By slightly departing from
what has already been told, this book entails the experimental
realities of intellectual disposition as a normative intervention
by drawing a biographical sketch of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the
first prime minister of India. This book seeks to invite attention
of a variety of dispositions embedded in him as nation-builder,
architect of modern india and a post-colonial intellectual. Nehru
visualised a series of public reasons to realise a society with
spirit of democracy, secularism, and socialism. His engagement with
modernity, as a national leader, had profound impact upon the way
development and progress of the nation was conceived in the
post-colonial India. The author critically evaluates how Nehru
negotiated with the criteria of modernity. This book not only would
open up debate on the questions of modernity among the social
scientist but also evoke those who are engaged in the process of
modernity.
