The Social Political Thought of Sri Aurobindo

Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2017 in the subject Philosophy - Philosophy of the 19th Century, grade: A, Jadavpur University, course: Doctor of philosophy, language: English, abstract: One of the frequently raised objections against Indian culture has been relating to its political immaturity. Most of the Western critics discovered the absence of political awareness among Indians and they presumed that accounted for all the failures of India in the domain of economics and politics. To them India can be rich in socio-religious field, but not in politics. These objections of the critics are based on the popular misconceptions regarding Indian history, culture and politics. In the present dissertation I would like to elaborate the views of Sri Aurobindo to combat against all such objections. While going through this discussion we would also like to make his views relating to the nature of the Indian society and politics crystal-clear.
