BookPublication details: New Delhi Routledge 2011Description: xi, 240 pISBN: 9780415676939Subject(s): India - Economic policy | India - Social policyDDC classification: 338.954 Summary: This book attempts to unravel the worldview of two prominent Indians of recent Indian history - Tagore and Vivekananda. Both suggested emancipation through political struggles but without transgressing the boundaries of humanism. This is significant, as identifying an enemy was an intrinsic part of nationalistic formulations. The larger philosophy of life, for Tagore and Vivekananda, was to reach out across geographical borders. (http://www.routledge.com/books/details/9780415676939/)
