Description
India today faces the onslaught of multinational investment and globalization in every sector of its economy but more so in agriculture. Will the new economic policy relieve the hunger of, or provide remunerative jobs to, the millions living in rural India? In order to answer this question, Vivek Pinto explores the basis for reconstructing a more harmonious, poverty-free, nonviolent, and self-reliant society based on the ethical and moral principles with which Mahatma Gandhi experimented.
This book successfully explicates Gandhi's vision of a remarkable, constructive and inward-looking programme for reconstructing a truly independent, self-reliant and spiritual nation.
