Summary
Mohundas Karamchand Gandhi was not an academic but the charismatic leader of the Indian national movement. He was inspired by a vision of "swaraj" (self-government) which, for him, meant not just freedom from colonial rule but the achievement of self-reliance and self-respect by the villagers who make up most of India's population. His economics was a part of this vision. This volume by Ajit K. Dasgupta examines Gandhi's economic theories in areas which include: consumption behavior; industrialization, technology and the scale of production; trusteeship and industrial relations; work and leisure; and education as human capital.
