This is not a history book, but one on political science. It does not narrate individual events as they occur and does not comment on the motives, successes and failures of individual actors. There is also no reference in the book to the two great issues which are the subject of contemporary writings - the issue of personalisation of power and the issue of corruption at the highest level re~resented by the alleged giving and taking of Suitcases full of money.- The Making of India:A Historical Survey

Ranbir Vohra, a specialist in the history and politics of China, Japan and India has written this book for the American public. One of Vohra's objects was, as mentioned in the Introduction, to enable the reader to 'comprehend the complex form that communalism, secularism, and democracy have assumed in India, and also gain a proper perspective on the character of the Bharatiya Janata Party and the reasons for its emergence as a major political force'.- Crisis and Change in Contemporary India

India is presently seen as going through a crisis of governability. That is not the only crisis through which India has gone. When India completely went under to the British power in the nineteenth century, the first crisis that arose was that of self-esteem. Were Indians at all capable of being their own masters? What was the essence of being an Indian and how valuable was that essence? Thinkers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries had to find answers to these questions. Some of them concluded that there was nothing of value in the Indian essence and propagated wholesale adoption of western values. Probably the first person who proclaimed the greatness of Indian-ness was Vivekananda.- Dr. Ambedkar and Empowerment-Constitutional Vicissitudes

The goal of the upliftment of backward classes has been uppermost in India’s national consciousness for more than a century now. One of the persons most intimately involved in the struggle for this upliftment was Dr. Ambedkar. As part of the celebration of his birth centenary year (1991-92), the University of Poona organised a seminar on Dr. Ambedkar’s legal philosophy and on the related contemporary thoughts. Some of the papers presented at the seminar, and some more contributions elicited from scholars of eminence, have been put together and published under the title, Dr. Ambedkar and Empowerment- Constitutional Vicissitudes. The essays concentrate on three topics: (a) Dr. Ambedkar and constitutionalism, (b) Dr. Ambedkar and social justice, and (c) Dr. Ambedkar and federal equilibrium. The book has thus three parts, with a foreword, a preface and an introduction added.- Hindu Nationalism and Indian Politics-The Origins and Development of the Bharatiya Jana Sangh

India’s partition has been a major event in recent Indian history. The forces that led to partition are in some ways active even today. Historians have therefore continued to delve into the past to get new understandings of the events of that time.
