India became independent in 1947 and, after nearly three years
of debate in the Constituent Assembly, adopted a Constitution that
came into effect on 26 January 1950. This Constitution has lasted
until the present, with its basic structure unaltered, a remarkable
achievement given that the generally accepted prerequisites for
democratic stability did not exist, and do not exist even today.
Half a century of constitutional democracy is something that
political scientists and legal scholars need to analyze and
explain. This volume examines the career of
constitutional-political ideas (implicitly of Western origin) in
the text of the Indian Constitution or implicit within it, as well
as in actual political practice in the country over the past
half-century.
