Gandhi (1869-1948) was one of the few men in history to fight simultaneously on        moral, religious, political, social, economic, and cultural fronts. During his time        as a lawyer in South Africa he developed his strategy of non-violence: the idea of        opposing unjust laws by non-violent protest, which he made the basis of his        successful struggle against British rule in India.In this Very Short Introduction to        Gandhi's life and thought, Bhikhu Parekh outlines both Gandhi's major philosophical        insights and the limitations of his thought. He looks at Gandhi's cosmocentric        anthropology, his spiritual view of politics, his unique form of liberal        communitarianism, and his theories of oppression, non-violent action, and active        citizenship. He also considers how the success of Gandhi's principles was limited by        his lack of coherent theories of evil, and of state and power,and how his hostility        to modern civilization impeded his appreciation of its complexity.Gandhi's life and        thought has had an enormous impact both within and outside India, and he continues        to be widely revered, as one of the greatest moral and political leaders of the        twentieth century.
