| Summary, etc. |
Any action which helps in giving freedom to evolve-whether it is the individual, communities or nation, is in accordance with conscience. On the other hand actions that purport to restrict such development or evolution, are against the principles of conscience and ethically wrong. Evolution here connotes the development of the human mind, the freedom to express oneself, the space to let a thousand flowers bloom simultaneously. If a country has to develop, first it must slowly move from the stage of 'national consensus' to the stage of 'national conscience'. National consensus always implies a compromise between what should be and what is practicable at present for the larger majority of people. This article probes as to what happens when national conscience gives way to expediency and becomes national consensus. Is ethical governance in consonance with the ethical and conscientious society? - Reproduced. |
