The Indian Journal of Political ScienceSummary: There are two parallel trends of the ever widening process of globalization. First relates to those who are in favour of globalization. Secondly there are those who vehemently criticize this process. Supporters and critics of globalization both can be said to have certain vested interest. There is however a need to understand and analyze these two mutually opposing processes and trends from a more genuine and humane perspective of the Gandhian philosophy. The panorama of contemporary globalization in Gandhian perspective is not very difficult to see. Gandhi’s experiments have led him to evolve a predominantly non-violent state as his second best ideal and a non-violent society as his ultimate ideal for establishing a vibrantly creative global and just political ethos where cooperation, equality and non-violence replace exploitation, inequality and bloody warfare and mutual hatred.
Interestingly, these are also aiming of the emerging global civil society as a concomitant aspect of globalization. Key Words Internationalism, Nationalism, De-terrotiarialization, Borderlessness, Global-Village, Global Civil Society, Swadeshi, Trusteeship, Non-violence, Sarvodaya, Liberalization, Privatization, Self-knowledge. – Reproduced
