This volume examines the multiple forms of reasoning in Indian
politics and explores a framework to understand them. In the
process, it looks at a series of issues involving the relationship
between politics and philosophy, including the status of political
theory, political practices, identity politics, and political
ontology. The book argues that in the years leading up to and soon
after independence, the task of conceptualizing politics was
largely in the domain of practising politicians who built theories
and philosophical methods, and further took those visions into the
practice of their politics. It maintains that Indian politicians
since then have not been as inclined to articulate their theories
or methods of politics. This book traces the transition from
philosopher politicians to politicians seeking philosophy in Indian
polity in the post-independence era and its implications for
current practices. It views Indian political philosophy from the
standpoints of political theorists, philosophers, and
practitioners. With expert and scholarly contributions, this volume
will be of interest to students and researchers of Indian political
thought and political philosophy, social sciences, and humanities.
