The Indian Democracy and the Common Man
Author: Prof. Dr. D. Swaminadhan
Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN: 1639403345
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
Democracy is defined as the Government of the people, by the people and for the people. It is considered the most acceptable form of Government in which every individual participates consciously and in which the people remain the sovereign power determining their destiny. India is a multicultural, multilingual, multi-religious and multi communal country. But Unity in Diversity is its strength. It is the largest Democracy in the World and is one of the oldest civilizations, with a rich cultural heritage. The Indian Constitution, which stands for national goals like Socialism and National Integration, was framed by the representatives of the Indian people over a long period of debates and discussions. The Constitution declares India to be a Sovereign, Secular, Socialist, and Democratic Republic. The Constitution of India guarantees Fundamental Rights to all its citizens. They have the Right to Equality, Right to Freedom, Right against Exploitation, Right to Freedom of Religion, Culture and Educational Rights and Right to Constitutional Remedies. Various other constitutional safeguards are provided in the Constitution for the weaker sections' welfare and development like Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes. While tracing the Indian Freedom Movement, Indian Democracy, Indian Constitution, Indian Parliament and Government, the book focuses on the status of the Common man. What benefits he derived from the three wings of governance- Legislative, Executive and Judiciary- and what he is deprived of has been examined in the book and suggested appropriate measures wherever needed for his betterment.

A Deterrent to Save the World
Author: Prof. Dr. D. Swaminadhan
Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN:
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
The precarious situation of Planet Earth due to the dangers of nuclear, biological, chemical weapons of mass destruction; environmental degradation leading to global warming; the man-made deadly viruses, apart from natural disasters and the cyber crimes; and the influence of social media on the elections of other countries are causing serious concerns. While the horrifying reminiscence of the World Wars is still haunting, the threat of the Third World War is already hanging as the ‘Damocles Sword’. The holocaust created by the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki should not be repeated. Unless serious measures are not undertaken immediately, it is sure that the destruction of life on Planet Earth may not be far off. The present conflicts like the Russia-Ukraine war and such problems elsewhere on the globe are signalling the potential for a world war. The regional conflicts are threatening world peace and security. The dysfunctions and failings of today's international order, including the UN, are evident. Now we have to find ways to prevent the present regional conflicts from blowing up into a World War situation. Using the existing mechanisms like the UN and through discussions and negotiations, we should try to find solutions. However, success is not assured. In parallel, we have to initiate steps to put in place a permanent democratic and federal system of world government within a reasonable period. The author has presented a proposal for establishing a democratic and federal system of world government to be funded by all the countries. This book aims to provide a future deterrent for world wars and world peace and security.

The Hindu Family and the Emergence of Modern India
Author: Eleanor Newbigin
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1107434750
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
Between 1955 and 1956 the Government of India passed four Hindu Law Acts to reform and codify Hindu family law. Scholars have understood these acts as a response to growing concern about women's rights but, in a powerful re-reading of their history, this book traces the origins of the Hindu law reform project to changes in the political-economy of late colonial rule. The Hindu Family and the Emergence of Modern India considers how questions regarding family structure, property rights and gender relations contributed to the development of representative politics, and how, in solving these questions, India's secular and state power structures were consequently drawn into a complex and unique relationship with Hindu law. In this comprehensive and illuminating resource for scholars and students, Newbigin demonstrates the significance of gender and economy to the history of twentieth-century democratic government, as it emerged in India and beyond.
