Philosophy and Action of RSS for the Hind Swaraj by Father Anthony Elenjimittam | RSS, Hind Swaraj & Indian Political Thought

Product Overview & Details

Philosophy and Action of RSS for the Hind Swaraj by Father Anthony Elenjimittam explores the ideas, philosophy, organisational approach, and social activities associated with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and examines them in relation to the broader concept of Hind Swaraj and Indian thought. The book provides readers with a perspective on the ideological and social dimensions of the RSS and its place within India's intellectual and public life.

The concept of Hind Swaraj has a significant place in discussions of Indian political and social philosophy. It is associated particularly with Mahatma Gandhi's ideas concerning self-rule, civilisation, society, ethics, self-reliance, and India's cultural identity. Against this broader intellectual background, the book examines questions related to the philosophy and activities of the RSS.

Written by Father Anthony Elenjimittam, the book is relevant to readers interested in Indian political thought, social organisations, Hind Swaraj, RSS history and ideology, Indian nationalism, Gandhi's ideas, social philosophy, and contemporary Indian intellectual history. It offers an opportunity to explore the relationship between philosophical ideas and organised social action.

The book's focus on both “Philosophy” and “Action” allows readers to consider not only ideas and principles but also how organisational philosophies can be expressed through social activities and public engagement. Readers interested in the history and development of social organisations in India can use the book as a resource for exploring these themes.

Philosophy and Action of RSS for the Hind Swaraj may be of interest to students, researchers, academics, political science enthusiasts, history readers, and those studying Indian social and political thought. It can also serve as supplementary reading for readers exploring debates around Indian nationalism, cultural identity, social reform, and different approaches to the idea of self-rule.

For readers seeking literature on RSS, Hind Swaraj, Indian philosophy, political thought, social organisations, and modern Indian intellectual history, this book offers a focused exploration of the subject through the perspective presented by its author.
