<P><I>Hind Swaraj</I> by Mahatma Gandhi is arguably the greatest text to have emerged from the anti-colonial movement in India and the first to seriously challenge the cultural and civilizational premises of the colonizers¿ mentality. It is also the first text in India that falls within the broad tradition of modern political philosophy, advancing a complex cluster of theses with conceptual sensitivity, analytical precision, and sustained argument.</P><P>This book critically engages with <I>Hind Swaraj</I> and explores the fascinating and subtle dialogue set up by Gandhi between the characters of the reader and the editor.
